Hello I've just bought myself a violin and am on the hunt for a teacher - there's loads of useful/interesting information on here so I thought I'd join properly and stop lurking! I'm 23, so a late starter, but I've been meaning to pick up either violin or flute for ages (and I may still take up flute as well!) so I've taken the plunge. The only other insturment I've played is soprano/treble recorder so thankfully I have a sketchy grasp of written music. Nice to meet you all

Good luck with the violin, and flute (?)

Welcome kate_rose. From my perspective, you are an early starter!!

Welcome to the Forums, kate_rose (and everyone else I haven't welcomed yet)! Hope you enjoy your stay!

By the way, I'm sure there are a few people around here that will be glad that you have addressed the recorder as an instrument and may try to recruit you to join their gang!

Welcome

Now it IS an instrument, it's a shame people don't see it as such. I stopped playing because I was too busy doing ballet at the same time and you can't learn music without a reasonable amount of time to dedicate to it. I doubt I'll go back to it though, I can't bear the sound of it anymore ... lovely to meet everyone!!
