- Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you so much for 5000 subscribers. It truly means the world to me. You guys are amazing! Here's a little Q&A to celebrate where you ask me questions about my violin knowledge, my personal life and much more! Hope you enjoy!
Go practice. - Hudba
You're 20 years old?!?!?!?! Mind blown!
Yeah, he looks kind of older.
@@maxchen2010 I also keep forgetting I'm older lol
Maybe, idk
His content is really good though
Haha thanks for answering my question. I’m in 10th grade and I’m 14. In India we have board exams for 10th and 12th grade which puts a lot of pressure on everyone. And everyone is obsessed with your marks, even if they’re complete strangers. My mom’s dentist told me to study. I’m just gonna tell my parents to make me practice violin every day. That’s what my grandmother did for me with singing and I’ve been singing for 10 years now!
No way! That's so cool! Accountability is a great way to be motivated to practice haha
LOVE THIS CHANNEL. You're great!
Wow, thank you! :)
Such a good video! I love your perspective on the violin as a means to discipline rather than a hobby! I totally agree. I definitely try to help my students and parents understand this. Hobbies are easy to quit. Quiting on the discipline of practice will most definitely lead to misery, especially in those formative years.
I love that you said helping students achieve their goals rather than a ridged 1 size fits all for every student. Knowing your student and their family hopes in their musical growth is so important to making the discipline an enjoyable experience.
Such great content! Here's hoping for 10k followers even faster than 5k!
Also, congrats to you and your wife on baby! They are the best! My 2 older kids are 6 and 3 and they both wanted to learn violin just from watching me, so I'm sure your boy will feel the same!
Thank you so much for the continuous support! It truly means the world to me! Yeah, playing violin is much more than playing violin, it mold one's character if you truly allow it to. Its great to hear that you also inspire your children to play!
Clicked on your first video because I'm plotting to learn the violin at 20 after wanting to learn since I was younger, your first video popped in my recommended feed and I'm on a violin obsession so I figured why not watch, seems like I made a good choice
Thank you for these kind words! I hope you keep up with the violin :)
Plotting?
Watching this now that you are almost at 15k! Almost there and congratulations!
Thank you! I really appreciate the support ❤️
Thank you for answering my question. Good luck with the future of your channel - I'm sure it will continue to grow.
Thank you so much! Means the world!
How you practice is so important. I'd love to hear some more about what you'd suggest to students or hobbyists who struggle with the quality of their practicing.
I'm going to be posting much more educational advice on proper methods of practice that will improve technicality on the violin so stay tuned!
Ahh a fellow Slav! I knew you were Eastern European. I’m Ukrainian Canadian. You have wonderful passion and you are super inspiring and I don’t even play violin but I might change that very soon due to you thank you
It’s a joy to hear that! Welcome to the channel🙂
Thank you so much for answering my questions! I learned so much about you, and as someone who has been playing violin for 7 years, seeing your progress in 15 years is extremely inspiring, and I will strive to achieve your level by practicing and hard work. Thank you so much for inspiring me and pushing me to practice more
Its my pleasure! I hope you one day pass my level :)
We always support musicians! Keep it up bro
Thank you! Really appreciate the support!
exponential growth!
Thanks to y'all!
Im gonna be so happy to write here when you get like 100k subs, that I was here in the beginning. Congrats for the channel. Also, can you make a video about violin methods, like Dounis, Suzuki and others? best regards
Thank you so much for being a part of it!! Stay tuned, I will be posting more tutorials, etudes, exercises and how to play pieces! Thanks for the suggestion!
I like it.
Ayeee love the cellos 💖 I'm no musician myself (I'm an ice skater) but ever since I started on a story I want to publish ever since I was in high school (which the story is centered around music and the main character is a cellist), I have had a long time appreciation for musicianship and what ya'll go through. Also accordions deserve love too 💖
No way that's so cool! You should try and learn one day:)
Well done sir 😁😁😁
Congrats on 5k 🥳 !!!
Remember me when you're famous lol 😉
Always hahaha:)
Me too ✋️
Lets go
I happen to started to learn the Violine in February this year. I love it. And I sometimes dislike it. I never had to work so hard for so little result. ( I learned to play accordeon as kid and progressed really fast) but I still love it ( I am 38 now). Never to old to do what you love. And today I treated myself with a new Violine.. Not an Violine shaped object. So beautiful..
@@MishaSkripach for most people even if they start at 4 yeara they will never be a Hillary Hahn, or a jusein bolt. So never even start? Cause chances are low you will be famous? Or the best in what you are doing? . The world is full of humans who do something with passion and enjoy it. That might be enough. You might think it is a waste of time, what is fair enough, for me it makes my time more meaningful.
@@MishaSkripach that's fine. My teacher can have my money, since it is my decision on what I spend my money on. And especially on what I waste my money on.
Thank you for answering my question! I am 15 yrs old and I am looking to see which repertoire is right for me.
Wonderful! Best of luck in your learning!
@@ViolinMechanic Thank you!
my cat agrees with your answers to my question lol
Hahaha!
Thanks for sharing your history. Now I see how you could get to your level in only 15 yrs. Where do you live now? I didn't notice it before but on this video I did detect a very slight accent. 😊
I currently live in Quebec, Canada, I speak a ton of french here so that also flattens my english haha
I would say that I’m more fluent in English than Marathi or Hindi even though they’re both my native languages😅

Congrats on your baby. I practice with my baby on my back. You might want to do the same. Hahaha.
thank you! I've never even imagined doing that! Such a creative idea haha
Are you going to do online teaching ?
Yes I do! Mostly in-person, but sometimes I do get special requests to teach online
@@ViolinMechanic - I’m just starting out, total beginner. Just liked your style and wondered if there was a chance of some lessons. I’m a long way from you I think.
@@portlyoldman if you'd like, you could contact me on my email address on the "about" section of my channel:)
@@ViolinMechanic- I would, but either there isn’t an email or I’m suddenly blind 😇😵💫😎
One thing I am not understanding. If you're 20, how have you finished university etc. already..?
Hey, I am not done university yet, I have finished college and conservatory studies however.
Where and with whom are you currently studying? Thanks
Bruh i swear this guy looks like Mozart in his youth lmao
