NO! I WILL PRACTICE EVERYDAY
- Practice everyday
- Work on your mistakes rather than practicing the whole song over and over again
- Be careful with your intonation, fix your mistakes while playing rather than ignoring
Drawzie practice 40 hours a day
If their starting the whole song again how many years will it take them to be good at playing violin????

I am 72 years old and have started violin lessons several months ago. I actually do the three things you mention, and I have done them from the start of my lessons. I just naturally did this on my own, not because my teacher told me to. I hope I will live long enough to sound good enough to "impress my friends and family." I think I am doing very well so far. Something I have to work on is slowing down when I practice.
Emm i've seen many biggener progress of people on youtube that are starting out the violin, i think in 1~2 years you can get to a decent level, i also started 3 weeks ago and it's been great here
yessss queen 🙇♀️👑
My dear Ms. Smith. Im 11 years your junior and haven't got my 1st Viola, yet! I've never been a good student and this comment of yours along with our kind teacher here have learned me summin! Just a smile there. But really, best wishes on your new ' language'.
Mrs. Smith, can we get an update on your progress?
73 now
I heard an intersting observation about fiddle playing: "Don't practise until you get it right.-- Practise until you can't get it wrong."
Dave White there is a very similar quote in the Ranger Apprentice series :)))
@@Julia-zd7yk Yes thank you! That's exactly what I was thinking! 😀
Sasjack 007 OMG ARE YOU ALSO A FAN OF THE SERIES?😆😆😆
I love the rangers apprentice series tooooooo! Rn I’m reading the red fox clan in the royal ranger.
@@Julia-zd7yk YES OMG I LOOVE IT! ❤😀
The beginning made me feel good
I've been practicing an average of 40 minutes (not hours ;) a day for 20 months. I just keep improving. Enjoying every minute of it! Wonderful UA-cams such as yourself, have it possible for me. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Fuck yeah man, nice work!!
I just got my violin today and I don't know how to begin... Any advice?
@wishwa abishek no when I started I started from ,earning how to hold the bow
I used to be amazing at the violin, I got a full scholarship to Juilliard in 1999. That wasn't what I wanted to do, I loved playing the violin, it brought me such happiness, but it wasn't a career playing the violin I wanted. I pursued the career of dreams, and now 30 yrs later, (I'm 39 now, started playing at 9) a couple years ago my husband bought a new violin for 🎄, I hadn't picked up a violin since 2000. I remembered how to read the music 30yrs later, I couldn't believe it!! Now at 39, my kids are older and I'm starting to play again, love your channel!
I always screw up while playing when using bow I always hit other strings..
Its ok. I'm not the best either since I just started this year in 6th grade. A good tip I've learned is to move your arm when you change strings instead of only moving your hand or wrist.
@@alexiahrodriguez3270 Oh thanks for cheering up I just have given up no matter how many days I try i always hit other strings.😥😥
Try to tighten the string (of the bow) a little bit...
The struggle is real. If you are having issues with string crossings, it may help to experiment a little with your posture and your hold with the violin. Even tiny adjustments in this regard can really make things line up a lot nicer making all your hard work on the bowing technique really pay off.
Memorize the passages if you can so you can really see what is going on there and what the technical issue is. Practicing with open strings can give you the ability to isolate your bowing without the distraction of left hand coordination.
sagar sth SAME!!! It’s very frustrating!
I'm 36 and decided I want to learn an instrument.
I'd love to be able to play Irish fiddle and violin music.
Thank you for sharing that and I want to let you know that it is doable not impossible. You got this! 🎻✨
@@Violinspiration I'm 69 and just finished my 4th lesson. My teacher is 81 years old and teaching me a lot, but I love getting your videos-like this one. I learn something from each one and feel like I can do this!
Watching this video has made me realize that I’ve been practicing wrong for a year. I will begin to practice more consciously, thank you!
Perfect! Good luck.🥰
Oh Wow... My Teacher said I have excellent intention (Is that how you spell it?) but I didn't really know what that meant. She explained that I correct myself when I am off. I'm only on my 4th lesson. You explained it really well too. It's good to hear it from someone else like you as well as my Teacher. My Teacher was a Student of Jascha Heifetz!! I can't believe I have someone like her to teach me!!! I'm in Aww every-time I visit her. She showed me personal pictures of Jascha Heifetz and well known other violinist that she traveled with and have signatures of. She is world famous Beverly Somach - She is 82 now and I think she does not travel around the world anymore. I asked her how she became a student of Jascha Heifetz and she told me that you could not even have lessons from Him until you were a world professional.
I love playing. It sounds so pretty. The violin is such a beautiful instrument.
1.Practice routine (better everyday,even 10 minutes, better no skip practice days)
2.Conscienciously practice (work in mistakes,dont ignore them, start from the mistake and/or slowly)
3. Intonation (fast re-intonation... when u r making the mistake, re-intonate while u r playing the wrong note)
👉 100% 🎻❤️
This was just the inspiration I needed. Thank you. Now I feel like I really can do this. 😊
Thanks Jlea, yes you CAN do this :D Just 10 minutes a day makes a HUGE difference in the long run. Wish you all the best practicing!

not flexin' at all...
Friend: A four year old can play the violin better than you🤔
Me: You don't even know how to tie your own shoelace😎
👏👏😂😂how old is ur friend
Many many thanks Julia..But I would like to request you to make a tutorial on vibrato...I have been playing violin for 1.5years but still I am unable to do that.. please help me out.
U r going 2 Learn that in 7th grade and I've been playing 4 3 yrs now
same
@@Ruiz31 Lol I just started orchestra because im in 6th grade and we are already learning it.
laila lamia omg same😂 Ik this is pathetic but I’ve been playing for 4 years and i still don’t know to to vibrato
Me too, I find it difficult
I just started playing violin last week, and I think your videos are wonderful! You are very encouraging, and your advice is very practical. Thank you so much!
Welcome to the world of violin Ken! 😊 Thank you for such kind comments, you are most welcome and happy practicing! 🎻✨
Yes!! Thank you !! I do all this . One other thing I have done that has helped me a lot is to play in front of my mirror and watch my hands rather than looking down the finger board, maybe that will help someone to.
I've been playing for almost 1 and 1/2 years. I began at age 65 with no musical instrument or note reading experience. I'm glad my drive to learn transcends everything because process is slow. Some of the more complicated parts of a song will take me weeks to learn, but I keep at it until I can get better. As long as I see improvement, I continue on!
Beautiful Jody! ❤️ That is 100% the right way to go about it and you are spot-on. 😊🎻✨
I also started with no knowledge of music. In fact I didn't even listen to music much.
Do you think I can sound beautifully one day if Im starung to learn the violin at 16 years old? I'll do anything to achieve that
Yes! Many of my students are way older than that and learn to play really beautifully :D
I am sure you can ! And also, remember that beautiful varies quite greatly from person to person: some would say that this guy sounds amazing, powerful and raw (perfect for a Jazz improv), and some would argue that his intonation is off and that his technique lacks finesse (ua-cam.com/video/8YhRj53jFJk/v-deo.html).
It is up to you ^_^
Fierro compa I’m so much younger than you and I can relate let’s say I’m VERY young but you can get better promise me just practice:D
I'm 11 😅
I'm older than you... I just picked up my fiddle today haha, I'm going to figure it out! The key to success is keeping going!
I love the sound of your violin, so clear and balanced
I wish I can play like this I’ve been playing since I was in 4 th grade but I feel like I cannot play anymore I feel like quitting 😢
I don't know if it's still in time, but don't give up. There was a time in which I thought I wasn't improving at all, but it passed. It took a lot of arguing with my mother -cause I wanted to quit- but it eventually passed :D
Thanks so much for sharing this. I actually have no words to thank your work and effort. I've started to learn violin 3 weeks ago and with your videos I found great inspiration and routines to include in my practise sessions. I can't afford a private teacher yet however I noticed quite an improvement, still there is a lot to learn but time will speak. Again thanks a bunch!
As a suggestion, try using Suzuki Method books. Great books with great music for starter Violinist. There are also a lot of exercises in the books to help you master techniques!
As a guy that is just beginning to play, I really appreciate this video. Thanks!
Glad to help!
Julia, thank you so much for your useful tips!
I love the way you understand students' struggles and give us tried-and-true ways to overcome them! Your inspiration videos and genuine desire to spark enthusiasm around violin practice is exactly what we need to overcome the difficulties we face! May all the love you put into your videos make the community of violin students grow and flourish!🌸
Thank you very much Julia, this is of great help to me. Especially when I am a self taught. Thank you again.
REALLY THANK U FOR UR FREE BOOK AND ADVICE:-) U ARE PLAYING SO BEAUTIFUIL.. IHOPE ONE DAY I ALSO LL BE ABLE TO PLAY EMOTIONAL:-)
greetings from Azerbaijan:-)
sincerely Shargiyya
I'm just a beginner learner thank you ma'm
Keep it up anjana's club! You got this 😊🎻✨
Yes,the main thing is to listen.I don't believe in stopping and starting,just keep going till you get it right. Timing is very important. X
Well said Gary! ❤️
Thank you for your videos. They are quite encouraging and illustrate some practical points. Unable to find a good violin teacher, I started learning violin with a pianist who has also been a conductor. I progressed well first year, having started at age of 34,but now there are days I feel I am not getting ahead and am depressed. My left hand has this quality of tightening that affects speed, vibrato etc. Today I am really depressed. So thanks for this video.
Thank you for sharing more about your violin journey and I'm so sorry to hear about how your violin progress is going Anuradha Ayyar, 🤔 if you'd like help You are always more than welcome to check out our online violin academy: m.violinspiration.com/join-us/
@@Violinspiration thank you. I will definitely do that. I am quitting my teacher and going to study online from next month. I am giving Trinity grade 5 exam this month. I hope I manage rest of the grades with self study. Thanks again!
So good. I'm a new teacher and I'm glad I have been teaching my students to do these things. I gave one of my students a recorder and he improved after listening to himself on the recorder.
That's great! I'm so happy your student saw an improvement. Listening to yourself is a great way to see what you can improve. And also a way to look back and see how far you have come.🥰
I'm a music teacher, this lesson is going to be SO IMPORTANT to My Students!! YOU ARE GOD SENT😇!! KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK 😇
Awesome! Thank you!
Merci beaucoup, Julia.. love your way of teaching and inspiring ! I reckon you and Beth Blackerby are the best teachers on-line. I taught woodwinds for years and am now taking on violin.. on the weekend I'll be purchasing a Stentor 2 violin.. a great challenge at my age to be taking violin on - it may very well save my life.. ha ha. ;-)
Thanks so much for this video!!! All my life wanted to play violin, but i just start 16 months ago!! Its hard but, watching videos like this one!! Step by step its possible!!! Thanks!
You can do it!😀
I return here only for listening the music you played in beginning. Loved it
Excellent advice! One of the most useful videos I have found on beginning violin, thank you!
Great to hear!
Thank you for this video. Your spoken English is very good!
Glad you enjoyed our violin tips video! 😊 English is not my main language so I'm glad to hear it was understandable 🎻✨
@@Violinspiration oh, which is your mother language?
Thank You julia for your songbook! God will bless you so much!!! ❤🙏
She was so so helpful thank you Julia Nick from Melbourne Australia
Happy to help!😃
Why I am I even watching this I’ve been playing 7 years and going😂😂
MavisDom! - Anime on Piano Honestly same 😂😂

Thanks for the tips to be better
I love this woman...
Wonderful! I am happy to hear that. I will let Angelina know. Have fun with the songbook!🥰
Thank you for your videos. I enjoy them and I am working on your suggestions with my practice. The hardest one is to practice on a regular schedule, ha ha.
I feel like the Ling ling will show me the way
Only Da king knows da wey
This was an excellent overview of specific things people can do to practice better. Good to know I'm on the right track and got some new ideas too!
Wow brilliant !!👏🏾👌🏾thank you J
Thanks! your welcome.😊
Tanks teacher
Such on par intonation ! I am only in the intro and wowed already !
I'm getting back to violin, my last instructor said I'll find vibrato easy due to the way my finger naturally moved on a string
nobody finds vibrato easy it takes a lot more work than it seems like
I really like the third tip, that'll go to my practice session.
It was funny how you were a lil' unsure where you made the mistake, when you were recreating it the second time hehe.
Thanks as always. ^^
This is good advice for learning any instrument.
Thank you, I'm so glad you think so!😀
Thank you for the advice. Very helpful. Many blessings.
You sound so good!!!
Thank you so much!!😊
I'm a complete beginner when it comes to violin (had it nearly a fortnight) but I used to play the sax/flute/clarinet (Did most of a Diploma of Music until I hurt my thumb & couldn't operate the octave key)
One thing I used to do on the sax & have started doing with the violin is practice with a cheap chromatic tuner on the instrument, the kind that turns green when the note is in tune. (It's not commonly known but you can bend a note on a sax &/or clarinet down a half-tone with lazy playing & it can sound terrible!) You don't need to look at the tuner but you can see the green glow out of the corner of your eye when you are hitting the right note & just like with the sax, it can help train your playing so hopefully, hitting the right note will become more or less automatic.
Hope this helps someone out there. It certainly helped me with the sax & clarinet & it seems to be paying dividends with the violin!
This is a great tip. Thanks for sharing! 😃
@@Violinspiration Thank YOU for doing all you do!
Thank you love light and blessings x
1.Regular practice.
2.Correct mistakes and practice where the mistakes are.
3.Not listening to the intonation and not correcting the pitch. Use a tuning app or a tuner to help if you can't hear the pitch well.
Here, I have learn something that will help me mch. Skiding to the right intonation. Thank.
Happy to help Raymond! 😊🎻✨
Wow!!!!! so great video, I like it a lot and so great intro music :) I loved it a lot :)
Thanks Mahmoud! Keep practicing :D
I love everything I'm hearing
Thanks!😊
One of the greatest plyers in the world always says, my intonation is no better than other players i just fix it faster, i believe it was pearlman.
😲 Wonderful insight. Thanks for sharing.🥰
Very good advice you are a good teacher. Thank you.
🎻✨😊 thank you so much
Thank you for the songbook!
Thank you Julia for this useful video
Great lesson, great tips. thanks
Glad you like it!
Thank you
thank you
The beginning though 🤯🕶🤏
💥🎻✨
Sorry to correct you.. Don't learn violin or for that matter any other instrument.. just to impress family and friends.. always learn not to impress.. learn to express yourself in the most beautiful way.. Thanks
Thanks for this video! I expected very different signs, lol, but this is very reassuring to hear!
It's been hard for me to find a violin to rent, so in the meantime I've borrowed a ukelele from a friend to play on and get a little used to playing a string instrument. I've implemented most of these techniques in my ukelele practice!
I'm picking up my violin next week and I'll keep practicing with the same mindset. :)
Thank you so much🎉
You’re welcome 😊
Great help❤🎻
Thank you🎻❤
u made me courage to play well thank you
This worked thank you so much I really loved this video u are amazing player love the sound
Glad it helped😀
Thoughtfully good advice!
Can you make a video in how to play that first bit
Swears
thanks
Thank you for your advice
I want to develope coordination to play faster on the violin, could you make a video of it? :o
Please 😌💗
JHi, what I used to get my students to do to get speed right, is play very simple pieces that are quite fast. The best type of music for this is Folk music and Bush dancing music. They are played quite fast but not very hard to play. And the very good thing about these style of pieces is that they allow you to start slow and build up. The other reasons is they normally have runs in them. It is a good way to learn speed, set fingering and bowing techniques. The othe thing to note is look at what part of the bow you are playing with. If playing very fast you should be right up near the tip of your bow. If at moderate pace between the middle and the tip, for slower and more tonale sound play near the front to the middle and try and use the whole bow! Also focus on your bowing wrist! If your wrist is to tight you will never get fast bowing down pat! Try holding the bow with only three finger 1,2nd and 3rd and thumb lift your pinky off, this will encourage you to put a little more forward pressure on the bow and will give better clarity in sound. Once mastered put your pinky back down. Hope this helps!
Fantastico thanks
oww nice playing and thank you
Thanks !😀
Thanks a lot for the good tipps.
Thank you 😊
You're welcome Mahe 😊🎻
Totally love this channel
Thank you, this was wonderful advice
Great points as always. Thanks.

Excellent video, very informative!
Thank you!
Great. I am glad you liked the video!😀
Thank you for the useful tips!
You're very welcome!
Great advice, thanks!
She has a cool scroll. And also, she said that to play violin is to impress friends and family but it’s not. It’s to connect with the music, to carry the will of the composer, and to communicate. But that’s just my opinion.
You are so sweet thanks. Lot for your effort it really help 🙏
My pleasure 😊
