When did you start playing?

I know this is a totally wrong thing to do but xD and I don't know how to play the violin but...

I'm saving up money to buy an electric violin. I know the acoustic violin's sound is already perfect as it is, I thought I'd pump it up like Emily Autumn.

I've been hunting down music stores for the perfect electric violin. I'm also a lead guitarist so xD I play both classical and metal. Uhh, how do I know if it's a quality electric violin? I know how to choose an acoustic but an electric might have something different that I might miss.

After watching that video of Rachel Barton and her music studies, I wanted to learn violin and so I decided to She did a study on 'Metal artists and their relation to classical music' which blew me away. Sure I have been playing classical for a long time but I had no idea they were so close.

Here's a link of her during one of her arrangements of one of the more popular metal songs.

YouTube - Pantera's Cowboys From Hell on violin and cello

I do metal versions of romance, classical or modern orchestrated pieces, violin and cello concertos (bach's cello pieces are to die for) on my electric guitar when I'm bored.

Pieces I've done (most I haven't completed)
1. Enerlkonig
2. Vivaldi's Summer
3. Bethoven's 5th
4. Motzart's Allegro
5. Toccata and Fugue
6. Fighting/Argueing Aunts (I forgot the first part of the title but it's a piano piece)
7. Start Wars (WOo0o0!)
8. Devils Galop (Fun song)
9. Mozarts 4th
10. Flight of the bumble bee (only the first 1 minute 26 seconds...chromatic scales get tiring)

...I...HATE..CANON!!!

ganahan ko! but d ko kbaw jud mu read ug notes. by ear lng ko mka play.,pagkaluoy.,hahaha

[kaiserflame]

Okay raman.Naa pud ang uban called "virtuoso"...either di sila kamao magbasa sa notes or hinay kaayo pero kamao gyud magplay sa instruments. Di muda sa violin XD kailangan kamao gyud ka mubasag notes or else dugay ka makaplay sa violin.

hello, im glad nga naa diay intrested violin dri sa istorya, i started playing when i was on my grade school days.

@kaiserflame. . the best ako ma suggest jud nmu nga perfect violin bai, would be zeta. wala lang na siya g sell dri sa philippines, you need to order it sa u.s, my brother bought a fender electric violin when he went to the states several years ago and until now, power ghapun kaayo, anyway, if you're playing for fun lang and not really into super serious like pang pros jud, dli man kaayo mo matter ang brand sa electric violn, anha na siya daugun sa imung gadget, of course having an electric violin nga nindot quality woud definitely help, pero kung linagw2x lang , ok ranang baligya dnha sa salongga or jb ba na, parisi lang ug decent nga gadget nya good amplifier solve naka. i hope mka pili kag electric violin nga mo bagay sa imu taste of music =) by thw way, nag sugod nkag kat.on ug violin karon?

[balolin12]

ganahan ko! but d ko kbaw jud mu read ug notes. by ear lng ko mka play.,pagkaluoy.,hahaha

ok na sis, dnha man jud magsugod tnan. at least ma develop sad nmu imu dunggan to be more sensitive. ayaw ka dscourage. if naa kay time, try ug surf sa net about notes reading applied into violin palying, pag frist rna lisud pero once maanad naka, dli na kayo ingun ana ka complicated. =) keep it up =)

[kaiserflame]

That's the thing xD bago bago ra. Mga one month pa. Long way to go pero seriouso gyud ko ani. I take my instruments very seriously. Samot ang guitar...metronome training 3 hours a day. Conditioned na akung tendons pero when it comes to akung movement of the bow kay luod kaayo xD uwaw kaayo paminawon if compared sa akung Electric guitar. Mao na akung nanotice na string instruments gyud akung hilig. Actually Cello unta akung sunod after guitar pero mahalon unya hassle ag pagdala. Kaila ka ni Emily Autumn? Hopefully after 3 years I can play like that. How long have you been playing and who taught you/how did you learn?
