I'm not a violinest but I've wanted to be for as long as I can possibly remember. Everybody I know wants to play the guitar or the drums but I wanna learn the violin. Only problem is that we don't have any teachers around where I live ... *sighs* Not to mention that the nearest place I could buy a violin would be a few hours away in the nearest city ....
Instead, I spend my time listening to every violin piece I can find and simply adoring anyone who plays my favorite instrument. Kudos to everyone who is a violinest. I give you such praise and good luck with your practice!!
*envy*

Hello, I'm Mizu-Chan, and I've been playing the Violin for... 5 years, almost 6... And i named my violin Jo.... After this CD game.... i don't know if anyone has heard of the JumpStart Learning Systems, but i named my violin after the character in JumpStart 5th grade.... anyhoo....
My favorite piece(s).... I like "Three Chinese Scenes" by Harry A. Alshin. It's based off the C, F, and G pentatonic scales. I also like "American Gaelic" by Shirl Jae Atwell (thats a very Irish name i think >3) And "My Heart Ever Faithful" By Bach! The first violin part! (normally i'm a second, but for one concert i had to do first (except on one but that was a combined orchestra thing.) and it was fun!) I also love "Gauntlet" by Doug Spata... Lets not forget "An English Folksong" arranged by Terry McQuilkin... And my absolute favorite Solo for violin, "Sarabanda #6 in C Major" By Bach.... Awsome!
So Yup.... I also love writing stories, Drawing, and reading... ^^

Hm... Well, I've been playing for about 10 years... I've recently started viola lessons... I want to learn how to play Tchaikovsky's Souvenir D'Un Lieu Cher (I've started learning, but sort of stopped.) and I would love to play Vitali's Chaconne. ( I don't have the ability just yet.) My main problem right now is my vibrato because I don't do the freaking thing right... (Gr...)
I named my violin Edward Chiaki... For anyone who has seen Nodame Cantabile. As for the Edward, he is a super talented guy in my orchestra... who is graduating this year. He also happens to be cute. (*ahem* Sorry 'bout that.)

Wow, it's so amazing how people have studied violin for so long! I envy you guys. Haha. wink Anyways, as for me, I'm still learning the violin. I hope I'm going to be as good as Paganini. Haha!! LOL. I love his Caprice. It's so fast and... and.. fast!!! biggrin I have been playing the violin for a month now, and I haven't thought up a name for it, but I do remember a girl every time I play this violin of mine. biggrin I shifted from piano to violin because it's kind of comfortable for me to play the violin. And my father said that I read notes fast, so I can play them more easier than I can play piano. If ever I were to choose what to violin piece I would play, it would be Paganini's Caprice. wink

Cool! I've played for 8 years, and my violin's name is LeCroix, because it's French. 3nodding I love Vitali's Chaconne, though the hardest part is just a little beyond my level. I'm currently working on Vivaldi's Four Seasons concerto. I love that piece!

I played for around 13 years now and still going forth with mastering the violin. I have 2 violins that are different colors. One is a pure vanilla violin that i call Lucid, and the other one is an average violin named Angelic ((because the sound of it is unbelievable since it's 30 years old)). My favorite piece to play is Bach's Sonata in G minor, and Partita in B minor. They are both very interesting pieces x3
