Does anyone else play the violin?

I play he violin, Viola and cello. I a more particular about the cello though. I play it nearly everyday.

My grand father used to play violen, he was a member of a band in our small town in the Philippines before and that is how he made a living those days. He knew how to play every musical intrument, especially the violin, guitar, drums, etc. But he's gone now about 6 years ago. I remember when he was sick, he asked me to borrow a guitar and he played it really nice, he asked for a violin too, but we weren't able to borrow one from our neighbors. Sorry, you just reminded me of my dear grand pa.

I only played it for one year

Nope. I can't play any instruments. :( --- --- --- "I certainly think Britney Spears is the devil. The way she projects herself and the fact that she is so obviously vacuous. I think it's such a shame that she became so influential to very small children." -- MORRISSEY --- --- ---

I played a little as a child until my orchestra teacher left the school. My aunt taught me for a little while but she moved away as well. I hadn't thought about it in years. Great memories. Thanks for bringing this up.

i have one but i never played. i wanted to take lessons but it didn't work out.

no

nope

I don't play any instrument!

For a long time I couldn't imagine life without playing some instrument, but now I haven't played in quite awhile. I played viola before violin, so I bought a 5 string violin which is totally awesome. I wanted an electric, but decided against it. Now I'm somewhat considering selling my 5 string just because I don't play it much. But I should try to start playing again.

I was one of those students who played the violin in grammar school for 3 years. Then, when I went to junior high school, I switched to the viola and played until I graduated from high school. I never owned my own instrument, and sometimes regret I never kept it up. I really enjoyed playing and learning to play the violin taught me how to read music which I used and still use when singing.

I hope you can teach me how to play violin. It's one of my frustrations in life.

I play the violin and viola, but I prefer the viola because of its deep warm sound. The viola and the violin have both become apart of me. Thats how instruments are. you play them for a long time, then they become part of you. You play them in rain or shine and happiness or anger. Playing the viola soothes me and helps me to relax.

I only play drums. My little sister has just begun learning the violin so I want her to teach me what she knows! If you guys like violin/cello you should check out The Red Paintings. www.theredpaintings.com or www.myspace.com/theredpaintings they have a string section and rock and paint and have an alien foetus in a jar.

Yes, I do. My Father and his father all played the violin. The family is from Germany and Austria, so it's something that is handed down, from generation to generation. If there was ever a fire, you would find me grabbing my violin and my cats first! For most of my life my violin was my greatest possession. *cringe* I'm afraid to say that an electric violin has eclipsed my wooden violin, for now. I usually play for friends and family.
