Adult beginner violinist - 2 years progress video

I'm a 24 year old (At the time of uploading) adult beginner from Norway, and I wanted to see if it was possible to learn to play the violin as an adult. This is the first instrument I learned to play.
This video is a collection of all the videos I recorded since I first started to play the violin. From week 1 until today.
I didn't think I could get this far in the short amount of time I've played :) I didn't really expect anything when i started. I just wanted to try and see how far i'll get :)
I'm mostly self-taught. I had a teacher last year but only had a total of 8 lessons. Hoping to find a new teacher soon :) I hope you like this video. UPDATE: I got a teacher after 2 years and 5 months. I have one lesson every week.

[@gregslow1]

My mum started playing the violin after my father had left us. I was three and she always made me feel like I was a gem, though it must have taken her so much. She would wait until I was in bed, then do the dishes and pick up the bow. I would fall asleep to music that accompanied me into my dreams. The Bach Toccata was one of her favourites. It was thirteen years in June since she passed away and I still hear her every night. Bless the music.

[@LlamaDrama142]

Its never too late for anything. We spend our entire lives learning. I personally dislike whenever anyone says "oh, I'm too old for this". No, you're not. Your attitude is the only thing stopping you.

[@DaDarkGuy]

I mean, being 80 years old is too old for being an Olympic athlete.

[@LlamaDrama142]

+DaDarkGuy anything within reason...you're not going to shoot fireballs out if your hands because you want it either. I'm talking about people who have the misconception that there's an age limit when it comes to learning new things. An if an 80 year old wants to be an Olympic champ that bad, why not pursue it anyway? There's a saying that goes "shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.". He may not get there, but he can become a very fit 80 year old

[@DDG2023]

Your brain loses the plasticity required to effectively learn new skills as you grow older. Other than that psychical constraint, anything possible... is possible.

[@LlamaDrama142]

+DDG yes, and your metabolism also begins to slow with age. But it still is possible to learn. There are 70 year old college graduates out there. And there are also fit 70 year olds - Silvester Stallone for example. Im not just being optimistic. It's fact. Yes, aging in life will present you with more hurdles, but it doesn't have to mean older people can't achieve what younger people can. That's been disproven enough. Btw no, I'm not an old man trying to size myself up with the younger generation LOL I'm 24. I've just seen enough not to assume age is a barrier for anything. Ever seen Ninja Warrior? There have been guys on the older side(40-50) who have actually beaten out their competition of 20 year olds.

I've never understood why people believe that if they didnt learn to play as a child they never will. If you want to learn ANYTHING. Then go for it!!!!!!!

[@brianafoster522]

Kassuhday they just dont got the patience

[@lauwarm8550]

Briana Foster But also not the time because as a child you have got a lot of free time so it's easy to spend it with practicing. As an adult you probably have to work, do the household, maybe also to look after your kids. So I think when you get adult and you haven't been learning an instrument yet you might see it as a hobby like collecting stuff and think that practice is a secondary thing. So most adults just simply don't practice enough and give up because if you don't practice you won't get achievements. That's why it doesn't make fun and seems very fast a waste of time.

[@petroskefallinos8735]

It came from the idea that the brain stops developing when we become adults...I started learning the piano when this was still a thing and i had a few people ''discouraging'' me based on that. I proved them wrong! :D

[@annbellgrau]

Yeah, like I think I learn waay better now than I did when I was a child, back then I didn't have the patience and didn't take anything seriously. Now I feel like if I really want to learn something I just have to concentrate and now I know how to learn, as a child I didn't think that much. It's the same with studying, now I know how to study, I have developed some techniques, but when I was a child I didn't know and didn't care that much.

I truly enjoy playing Violin. My husband, a professional violinist, taught me to play in 1997. I was in my early 40s, I am 72 now, and am still playing. Never stopped playing together. If you are a beginner, don't hesitate, keep in mind that the Violin is a difficult instrument to learn, but if you study daily, you will make it. Just, Don't give up. For me wasn't too difficult because I do play piano.... Good lock....it doesn't matter your age if you want to learn!😊 Good luck... Violin 🎻🎻 and 🎹🎹

[@ck1511]

[@kote1892]

I can relate. When I was a kid, my dad told me to play guitar (he's kinda stuck in his on manly pride) so I played guitar for six years. I got a job and saved up and bought my first violin. I just thought about how silly it was to have a dream that's so easily accomplished. I couldn't afford lessons, so I self taught. 6 months later, I got a chance to play on a stage. My first show, I had a crowd of around 600 people, I played a song by Dropkick Murphy's. After that show, I got in touch with a coordinator, who lines up all my gigs. I took up more instruments. Now I play piano, guitar, bass, cello, violin, viola, mandolin, and harp. All you have to do is take the first step.

[@teckyify]

But I can tell you that's it's a completely different story actually practicing consistently for years, it gets really hard to be patient and consistent, results come very late.

I'm a violinist of 10 years, so I've known a lot of other musicians.

How did he get so good in only four years? he practiced for 5 hours a day, every day for 4 years

It's easier to learn at a young age, but adult beginners who are committed enough can reach a very high level.

[@aragonaut]

Katikut talent is an aspect though Ive been playing Bass for over 8 years, and I know people who have never played before who can pick it up and play it as good as if not better than me in a matter of a few hours Working harder is fantastic advice, but there are people who are just naturally more gifted at things

[@chrismace279]

Katikut people are entitled to say what they want. some people can't afford such luxury, others struggle to learn with learning disabilities. to say your fed up with those say they wish they could do this. some really can't. for instance. I can never continue learning more in college or university because I don't have the ability to learn more. I struggled in elementary and high school. so I think it's a bit harsh saying what you did because some of these people, you don't know their capabilities as well as they do. or the fact if they can afford it. I'm just saying to be a little more open minded and mindful of others who may not be able to succeed

It's totally different. Adults will learn way quicker and that's because children don't focus as much. Many kids play because their parents want them to. All adults play because they really want to. And that makes a huge difference. You could be practicing for hours on end with no real progression of you're not really into it 100%

I had 2-3 lessons a week, and i played at home only like 30-45mins once a week, plus i didn't give a shit as i wanted to play harp or piano and not violin, but my parent's couldn't afford these instruments. motivation is a massive factor, and you still as an adult can become really really great in a couple of years no matter if you start in 20s 30s 40s or later.

I have bought my first violin today. I've always loved the sound and wanted to learn. I do play guitar & piano but I'm not particularly good, just knock out chords and jangle the keys. I didn't play much for over the last ten years or so. Then a friend bought a nice Ibanez electric guitar. It felt lovely to hold and the action is nice, this inspired me to get myself a similar guitar. I have really gotten back into playing again and got a portable electric piano a few weeks ago. My work colleague and I were putting rubbish into a bin and found a violin. We talked about how we wanted to learn and ever since I have thought about it until I caved in and got one today :-) Seeing this long lady progress has inspired me this evening. I will get lessons so as to not develop bad habits or technique. Great video :-) many thanks x

Great video - it was brave and generous of you to share your early efforts, even now that you play so very nicely. Other people starting out will be encouraged to know that those awful sounds they produce at first are just something everyone has to go through! (Although I still sound like that some times, after plenty more than two years trying). The other thing that comes across in your video is the beauty that can be produced and the joy you can get producing it, even if you are not at a star performance standard. It doesn't have to be about being a world-beater - once you start making nice sounds it's just an endless joy to keep learning more.

Two years ago I found myself with a lot of time on my hands and a fear I was running out of time to learn the things I had always wanted to know how to do. So, I went to Pinecrest and youtube to teach myself those things. Knitting, wood carving and whittling, felting, embroidery, French, crochet, sewing, stained glass, wreath making, gardening and metal detecting and magnet fishing. I'm not an expert in most of them. For Christmas my parents bought me things I will need to start working with leather craft and my husband bought me a violin because I want to learn that. I turned 40 recently and I've come to realize that you don't have to be good at things to enjoy doing them for no one but yourself. It's never to late to dabb,e in the things that interest you.

I want to be a violinist but I don't have a violin and i use 2 sticks to pretend it's a violin and I don't know how to play it :(

This is amazing! I'm 24 now and have a piano background and want to learn violin. I did some research and all the info was pretty discouraging until I saw ur video! I'm really motivated by it!

[@ViolinNoobie]

Thank you :) The violin is the first instrument I learned to play and I didn't know any music theory. Since you already play the piano, it will give you a advantage. Good luck! :) It's never too late.

I registered for lessons after finishing watching this video. Going to start this Saturday! Can't wait!

+Violin Noobie hey, I just turned twenty nine this year and I started teaching myself the piano, so far I know the Fairy Tail theme (slow version) and a Tender Feeling from SOA and a little bit of the theme from The Last of Us. in just 4 months. you really are never too late to start learning something new!! life is short, and you only get one! this video is extremely inspirational, liked and subbed, no question! question: what was the piece called @4 months
