Adult violin beginner 3 years progress video

[@foreverlearning8926]

Watching violin progress video is what make me start learning. Great to see so much progress. "You have to learn the violin when you are a small child" is such a big lie. Thanks for sharing your videos

*".. .when you want to become a professional violinist" You can start anything as an adult and be very good at it. But professionals have to start earlier because there are such percise improvements that a lot of people can't even hear. And of course the concurrence: I think it's nearly impossible to get better at anything as an adult beginner than a person who started as a child and ptacticed the same amount of hours a day or even a little less. Also, he is really really good. Most people improve so much slower.

[@ryoko1991]

@ i would say it depends. if you are a musician to begin with its alot easier. you allready developed alot of the skills necessary.

[@ellenqian3179]

well...it's not a lie. If you want to be a professional classical musician, then you certainly have to learn it at a very very young age. But if you just want to be an amateur musician playing for fun, it's never too late.

[@YGOrochi]

The feels man.

[@YGOrochi]

@@ellenqian3179 what you said is 100% false. The human brain doesn't work that way, it's like Language, sure it's easier with a baby sponge brain to absorb all the information however, it by no means, means that you cannot learn a language at an older age, my dad is 56 and has spent the last 4 years learning German and has just got his Degree in German Language... so yeah, completely false. What holds you or anyone back is their attitude, attitudes like the one you appear to have. Have more faith in yourself. We can do everything children can do, it just take longer.

[@Violinspiration]

just to warn you: for those that are here watching and thinking this is the "usual" progress - it is not! Even for children! Either this man has experience with instruments before, he practices for hours every day or he is exceptionally talented (and it might very well be all of these combined!) So please don't feel like you can't do this if you didn't make as much progress - for most people this takes much longer! Just wanted to add this as I know for some watching videos like these can feel discouraging, especially if you compare his progress to your own progress. Also, some will get unrealistic expectations of what it takes to learn the violin - because for most, it is much harder than practicing 3 years and being able to more or less play Czardas. to the creator: great job of course and I am very happy for you that you have learned so much in this short amount of time! :)

[@vibratoqueen450]

Yeah, isn't it so amazing how he was able to gain SUCH a great understanding of how the instrument works just by watching KZbin? Just LOOK at that Czardas - he almost has a Sautille! He probably has a very organized mind as much of learning how to play the violin is learning the process of practicing and improving things - thinking logically! This guy has to be one of the most talented people I've ever come across. I've been taking lessons for 1.5 years and believe me, I certainly didn't think this was typical progress!

[@ethan7550]

Completely agree, to make this fast progress, you have to practice really really hard and be talented at the same time.

[@alphaneticgd4569]

[@robertbrawley5048]

From the the 2ed week I could see he has a very good memory t Compared to mine . Yet I didn't think he progressed well enough for two years . 2years and 4 months he was getting his stuff together. But I'm disappointed to hear the commentors warnings that he is exceptional in playing that gypsy piece . You all mean that it would take 4 years to get that good? That busts my bubble. And I appreciate you all's warning

[@stew148]

This is really impressive. His bow is surprisingly good since he has only been playing for 3 years! Just a tip though, maybe practice more scales and technical work instead of just pieces because that way when it comes to actually playing pieces it will seem a lot easier and will sound so much better. I can definitely recommend Kreutzer’s 42 etudes for studies, they’re really helpful. But this is seriously impressive and inspiring. I can tell that he worked really hard to get this far in such a short time.

[@stew148]

@Kay D3333 It's probably the way your fingers move and how your arm weight sits into the bow. I'm not a professional so I'd recommend speaking to a teacher about it. But I can say that Kreutzer's 6th and 7th Etudes played at the frog can be very useful exercises for you.

Frankly, I’m amazed at how good your intonation was even a very few months into this video - most beginning students are still way off correct patch for the first year or more.

So inspiring. I started playing at 57 years old and it is wonderful to see this. Thanks for sharing your journey with us.

You got a pretty good vibrato in only 8 months. I've been playing 2 years and I cant even begin to make any sort of vibrato.

[@DoctorRin_2]

One thing I can say, not just for violin any instrument if you loved it that much and were willing to make a deliberate not wasteful practice because this count deliberate practice, and try to understand the instrument it may take you 5 years what took someone 2 years but if you understood your instrument you will even surprise yourself And please don’t be discouraged, love your instrument and work smart not hard. Archer is a very dedicated person you can see his love for violin in his playing.

[@darkmatterii]

One of the first "progress" videos I've seen that seems genuine, accurate and doesn't belittle hard work and practice. Well done!!

[@marciamackey1645]

I love that you focused on your intonation from the beginning. That's why it's so good. The bowing and the fact it's mainly in tune. Everything else can be perfected later. You also seem to have natural dexterity. Very inspiring as a 54 year old beginner.

When you think about it, very few children reach this level in three years. I mean VERY few. So, if you keep on practicing, you'll be really amazing in the end

[@trumpsahead]

You're good. I've been playing since March 2019, about two and a half months. Within one month I was playing about two dozen pop tunes, but still have plenty of scratching and coordination problems. Your sound quality was excellent from the outset for a beginner, really good control. I just bought two bluegrass books to learn which should give me good exercise on fast fiddling and a better ear for improvising around simple melodies. At 23, you can easily become good enough to make money with your instrument. Good luck.

[@AnhNguyen-lq5qo]

Anyone came here hoping you can play like him in 2 years. The truth is no, especially if you're self-learning. This guy must know how to play another instrument before or must play violin more than 2 years or must be a prodigy. Even when you play violin for 12 hours per day, you couldn't reach this level unless you're very talented and have been gifted in music.

Bullshit I am shocked how many people like you underestimate themselves UTTERLY, of course you'll achieve nothing in it even if you wanted to saying that shit, keeping that shit in your brain.

Inspiring video. I’ve been a pianist for 30 years and love it but would like to try learning a new instrument now at age 40. I did play violin for several years in school as a teenager but was never very good. Perhaps it’s time to pick it up again. I was thinking the cello would be nice to try but I have very small hands, so likely not the best choice.

1 to 2 hours a day practice is something I can't put in as i have a full time job, family and other commitments in my late 40s. I get at best 6 hours a week and usually about 4 hours only , excluding the 45 min lesson itself. Practice usually comprises 30 mins here and there added together. After 2 years 3 months I just started the grade 5 exam pieces, I do not master each piece for each grade but follow my teacher's pace,. I don't take the exams. I am not close to your standard, at least in terms of bow control in the czardas or intonation.

Pretty good for about 3 years, At the 8 months point I could see some VIBRATO pretty good vibrato for a beginner. But as a violinist or a violist there are 2 different types of vibrato.1st one is WRIST vibrato, Wrist vibrato is for like fast songs,2nd one is ARM vibrato, arm vibrato is for slow songs and you move with your whole arm. But over all not bad.

Krueger definitely May I suggest practicing with no thumb to loosen your bow hold

[@portraitbyelise2309]

WOW !!! You went so far in just 3 years and self taught. You had a very good intonation from the beginning, even in the first months. I've noticed in violin progress video people used to struggle a lot with intonation. Also you mastered the bow in an impressiv way, it goes super straight from your first tries (even if at first you used just a small part) and you're now able to do realised difficult bow strokes too. You look like you were not indulgent on yourself and tried your best to correct and fix any problem you could have. I guess that's how you reached this ease after a few years. I'm curious what was your "lessons plans" over the years. How did you get that far, it seems that your progression went faster and faster over the time.

[@violinroamer--violinself-t3826]

As a self-taught violinist, you really play very very well. I am so curious about: 1. Did you play any other instruments before playing violin? 2. What is the hardest piece you can play right after completing the 10 hours of violin lessons ? Tks!

[@archerocd4521]

in the beginning I watched my bow going through all the time, then I focus on the stable tone, you will finally make it!

[@ramonlopeznote]

wow, it is incredible to see how your bow hand relaxes over time. You have the perfect hand of a violinist.. long fingers, in fact, so long that you bow hold looks awkward. I would turn the right wrist a little bit more towards the violin. It is tow high!, must be more relaxed oriented towards the up bow. Good luck.

[@ellenqian3179]

As a piano person, because of Tchaikovsky violin concerto I have impulses to self-learn violin. I'm a 28-year old phd student, so obviously I cannot practice 40 hours day like Lingling. But this video somehow provides me an illusion that perhaps I can do it as well.
