    “Bro, there’s four flats!”
    I don’t read music. If I ever see four flats, they’re on my car and someone is out to get me.

      Bc Eddy can be guided by his ear and perfect pitch if he’s remotely familiar with the piece and Brett can rely on muscle memory and good accuracy w/ sight reading 👌

      Well my last comment was 2 months ago and partly due to a convo thread with another TwoSetter but mostly thanks to two guys called Brett & Eddy, I'm now seriously considering it myself, Matt. Have done lots of online research and found a luthier who rents a violin for £17.50 a month! In the meantime I've constructed a bow 'end' to practice my hold so when I try out my eldest son's viola (that he was gifted but doesn't play) I'll have an idea of whether to make that start. Yes, insanely difficult but in 15yrs I should be well beyond 'Twinkle, twinkle' Lol

      I took Up the violin when i was 48 now 57 years old and i can tell

      Either. Depending on how much time you have Available to
      Practice roughly the first 5 years are the
      Hardest i wanted to quit often during Those 5 years. But it is one of those things where You
      Sound awful and then suddenly one day it all falls into
      Place and its magic!! The key ingredient needed here is the passion for the music that will male you push through.

      It helps when it's a well known tune, you can bridge gaps in the sight-read from just remembering how it supposed to sound.
      They would have been at least vaguely familiar with this, as it's one of those tunes every classical musician has heard many times during his education.
