Learn to play the violin at 21.
Hello,
I am now 21 years old and I have never played a single instrument, do music theory and cannot read musical scores.
I have always looked in the sense that I love listening to musical instruments and I have always wanted to play the violin or the piano (my preference is for the violin)
I would have liked to learn at a younger age but it’s now a bit late in my opinion to learn the violin, especially as an autodidact.
I read that there are special movements on the violin and that I still need to have a good foundation in my support.
Except that it scares me a little, at my age, I’m a bit apprehensive about telling my parents that I want to start playing the violin, pay for lessons. According to them, it won’t help anything.
Yet, for me it matters and I don’t know how to start. I feel like all good instrument players started very early. And that’s not reassuring, I would still like to have a fairly good level in the future.
Can you enlighten me?
Thank you!
Ps : I’m french and I live in France so sorry if my english is not perfect.
