Hello, I’ve only ever played the drums before and want to learn the viola, something that’s always seemed interesting to learn. I am 18 years old and have heard from a friend who’s played the violin that it’s too late to learn. Nevertheless, I still want to learn even if I’m a little disheartened. I’m having my first lesson next week and more than a little nervous. I also want to prove to my friend that I can learn
Any tips for learning?
