I m 17 years old, I want to learn violin, I have time, but I don t know what I can do in two years

My music theory teacher once said, "The violin is the most difficult to practice, and it takes at least six or seven years or even ten years to really get started".

In fact, it still depends on your input, I am in contact with a little older, and I can reach a level of about 4 in two years, because I am older, my comprehension and memory are better, and I am relatively faster than children, but the basic skills must be practiced solidly, otherwise it is that the repertoire of that level is not good.

Give the first floor a sense of it.

I'm going to make soy sauce.

I hope you will be more interested in 2 years, even if you can play a grade of music, it doesn't mean that the music you play can be listened to, including yourself, play the violin well, I don't think anyone plays the violin for the "level", anyway, I play it for the sake of sound.

Seriously, it's not too late to learn now, and I'm interested in teaching you.

It's hard to say. I started studying at the age of 15, and I finished the amateur level 10 exam in four years, and I will be able to reach the level of level 7 in two years. It depends on the individual's time and perseverance, and it is quite boring when I first learn, but if I can insist on 2 hours of uninterrupted contact every day, I can basically reach the speed I said.

Kindness... If there is a great deal of interest ... There's plenty of time to think about ...

But it is important to distinguish whether it is just a momentary interest ... When the violin first started learning, it was really boring... And the older you get, the more boring it becomes to learn from scratch (personal feeling).

Two years is really not a long time for practice,,, it has something to do with determination and talent... But in my experience ... I don't think two years will be very effective...

The violin is recognized as the most difficult instrument to learn. It is generally believed that: 1) it is necessary to start from elementary school, preferably at the age of 10, it is too late at the age of 10, and it is a joke to want to learn the violin after 20 years old; 2) Must have the best talent; 3) The condition of the hand must be good, and the fingers should be long, especially the little finger; 4) The ears should be good, it is best to know what notes are played on the piano as soon as you listen to them; 5) It is best to practice for 6-8 hours a day; 6) It is extremely difficult to play the violin tone accurately, and it must be worked hard next year; 7) Some skills such as the quality of violin pronunciation and kneading are innate and cannot be taught; 8) If you don't pull well at the age of 20, you won't be able to make progress.

For a long time, this view was not only the opinion of ordinary people, but also the opinion of violin professionals. But this is a misconception, and many people are misled.

Specifically: 1) The violin does not need to be learned from the age of 3-4, unless the child is a genius and has a natural love for the violin; 2) It is enough for Chinese children to start learning from the age of 8-10; 3) A person who learns the violin does not need any special genius, what is needed is that he loves the violin, and this love can be born and cultivated; 4) Any person with normal hand conditions, that is, the little finger is not particularly short, and the second joint of the 5 fingers does not protrude inward, can learn the violin; 5) Even a 40-year-old person can learn the violin, the only condition is that he loves the violin and can practice for at least one hour a day; 6) To become a violinist, 3 hours of practice a day is enough. Ao Er said

If 3 hours was not enough, I advised him to change his career. 7) Any violinist, as long as he is in good health, even if he reaches the age of 60, if he has technical defects, as long as he practices the method, he can still improve; 8) Pronunciation, intonation, and kneading can all be cultivated, including the skill that many master performers in history did not know, and it is now recognized that they can all be learned.

But you may also see that on other occasions, Zheng Yanyi has said more than once: "It is difficult for a violinist to improve his technique when he is in his 20s." So, is he contradicting himself?

I said no. Why do I say no? Because the violinist clearly received formal education and training from elementary school, that is, his ability has been tapped to the limit by modern violin education methods.

And the 40-year-old, who has never learned, is just beginning to tap into violin talent, so there is no contradiction.

Regarding the length of practice, 3 hours is indeed enough. The idea that advanced skills can be acquired through long hours of practice has long been abandoned. Heifetz practiced for 3 hours a day.

Heifetz said: "Under-practicing is just as harmful as over-practicing. If I practiced 8 hours a day, I wouldn't be a violinist.

How can I live like that? "Although I have heard that Giulia's students practice at least one hour a day, I think that just shows that they love and work hard, is it necessary and scientific? Not necessarily.

There is perseverance and perseverance, nothing is too late, in history, there are many examples of masters who only started to learn in their 70-80s, but became famous, not to live to learn all the time, and 14 is not too late.

Learn, as long as you can learn, it's never too late to learn.

It shouldn't be too late, but you have to find a good teacher.
