Hello Beth,
What is the best way to set up my practice time? Some days I have more time than others, ranging from 15 min to several hours. I am very passionate and excited about my learning to play my violin as I have only been playing since for 4 months. I am overwhelmed with all the information available, and am looking for a more structured path to make the best use of my time and steady improvement. There are so many areas to practice as reading and playing music is new to me at age 48.
Thank you for your time,
Joe
Hi Beth,
Thanks for putting together such a comprehensive resource. I'm learning from scratch and have worked through the first 35 videos or so.
I'm a secret violin player! I'm a 38 year old police officer, I work shifts and manage to practice when I'm not at work. I hope to be able to play Pachelbel Canon to my wife when I'm good enough and re-propose to her for an anniversary in future. We married to a tape recording of it 14 years ago.
I'll set something grand up to reveal my unknown talent and play to her and probably some family too!
I'm enjoying learning but find time to practice an issue because I can only do it when my family are out. Am I as well to just keep plodding on through the lessons or do you have any advice to speed up my progress to achieve my goal?
