That means your posture is wrong. Relax yourself, your whole self. Do not grip on the violin, do not press the fingerboard hard and make sure your bow control is firm. This require demonstration from your teacher.

Hi, welcome.

That is valid for any college student ID?

Cool!

cello newbie, I wish you were my mom. My parents never support me anything about music...

I am minoring in cello but I am not ready to teach. I am sorry.

Okay, I wanted to add something. You might want your child to know what is a viola too. Try to introduce them a wider range of instruments from woodwind, brass and percussion. Not to make your children to change their mind but to explore more.

By the way, there is one shop that sells wide variety of strings instruments. I think they have used cellos. The shop is nearby KLCC, City Square.

Euro Music Distributor Sdn.bhd.
CITY SQUARE (C10)

I want my dad to play the double bass.
My mom plays the cello.
My sister plays the viola.
And I play the violin..

You are welcome.

Shifting to where?

Near Bukit Jalil... Hmmm... Maybe the orchestra I am playing in, it is located at Puchong.

The conductor is Danny Francisco. Things about my orchestra and the conductor:

Guitar hurts the most. Because guitar got chords which hurt multiple times in one finger. Therefore, have to press the note harder compare with violin.

You are welcome. Yes, I play guitar as well.

Playability is different and Kapok guitar is the cheapest yet hardest to play.

I do not know you well but being a musician, every musician should learn two instrument. One major and one minor.

Good luck on exploring.

OMG...

Nononononononono, I cannot play brass and woodwind instruments. Still got a long list to go.

Old ones...I hope I can at least touch those.

Hmmm..I see. That is good.

Cheapest cello is about RM1400, China machine made.

Okay, do not release your stress until the drums went kaboom. xD

Well, I think everyone does that.

After all, we start Riots! Of course we do!

For your information, painted instrument (only applies to string instrument) are the worst. It looks good but sounds bad.

Disagree, I play my electric guitar aggressively.

Most of our violins are natural-coloured. So yes. It does not not need to stick another wood for that.

Those painted violins like red, blue, green, yellow, white, black and etc. They take a normal violin and it just straight apply those colour paint. Thus two layers of paint.

I do not think so because there is no such natural-coloured woods.

Maple and spruce is widely used. Rosewood are only for the chin rest because rosewood is heavy.

Hmmm..can open a new thread to discuss about that? I want to know your point of view.

I wish to be a violinist who can play without shoulder and chin rest.
