The adventures of an adult beginner violinist.
In May 2016, at age 26, I fulfilled a lifelong dream: learning to play the violin. It's a challenging but amazing journey! On this channel I share my progress, performances, musical adventures and advice.
My name is Marijke. I work three days a week as a teacher in elementary school. I live with my husband in a cozy town in The Netherlands.

0:47 ... rohh you was about playing Titanic after 3 weeks only !!!
I use Andrea solo now, I love them. They require little application and it's so grippy and clear on the strings.
Greetings. I am looking, searching, inquiring for weeks for a source to purchase a set of octave viola strings , for my 16 inch Viola/ Please help.
Hey guy's, Someone tried? Is it really comfy? My shoulder brudje is always falling 😅
Third part, please😅
If you have an electric why not a pedal?
How can I find this exercise bdf 🎼👍🏽

Dankjewel KZread voor het aanraden van deze video, nu heb ik nog weer een project erbij wat twee jaar gaat duren 😂
WHAT WHAS THE NAMO OF YOUR FIRST VIOLIN BOOK?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🥰
Before was better 😉
as guitarist now i could play violin or viola. without frets i don't think i could succeed in :D
Thank you for your violin tutoring l have found it extremely difficult doing 3third position and have been grateful for your help and suggestions
Hello, I'm looking forward to buy a 5 string violin to play g string notes with warmer and darker tone. But it's the time of response of the c string for violin the same as the viola or it's more fluent than a vioka
Why such complex device to put frets on a violin? Just do what lute players do for centuries. Use gut or nylon tied strings around the neck. Also because they need to slightly movable for tuning.
My violin came with this strings when I purchased it. For the first week A string in some position have wolf sound. But after few weeks later it sound very nice and I love it especially G and D string, very warm and soft, but kinda buzzy when you play it hard but I still love it, it makes it unique. Very nice for the budget too.
Say you had never played the hurdygurdy or even the violin. Would you have started by making your own instrument? Because of the $$ savings? Seems like a lot of work and then maybe the average person fails at learning how to play well and it's all down the drain with a huge amount of frustration. I made a chromatic dulcimer from a kit and I never play it because it's sort of a completely different kind of dulcimer than my other ones. That was a hard and sad "experiment".
Am about 1.5 years playing violin only minuet 3 & ashokan Farewell that I am able to play😢. But my vibrato quite nice and sautille almost done😊
Why is are nylgut banjo strings like $15, $20 for most guitar strings, $30 for good mandolin strings but over $100 for violin strings?! It's crazy. I'm buying these strings because they sound warm and cost less than $100.
does anybody notice a scratchiness in playing. corelli was just annoying. may be its the recording, i do have quite a good speaker. it seems to be extremely loud. may be its not my cup of tea
Ye missed a bit.
Dónde puedo descargar esas plantillas?
As someone both at the same time I confirm all of this
Looks very good 😊
Thanks, Andy! 😄
Wow ! Good job Marijke!
Surprised you didn't recommend upgrading the bridge!
Thank you soooo much!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You don't know how much you helped🎉🙏🏻

Hey! Looks like you made some adjustments to your violin strap since your original video about the strap in Sep 2023! I have a Yamaha SV-200 and some neck/shoulder pain. Can you share what updates you made? Through comments or another video?! Thanks!!
0:25 That's the brochure dream; in reality, most guitarists are out of tune either in spite of frets or because of them. Getting intonation on frets requires individually movable bridge saddles (most acoustic guitars don't have these), as well as nut compensation (vanishingly rare on any kind of guitar).
Do you have background music? You are talking while music is playing. Very distracting when listener is trying to absorb information.
Have you heard of the Codabow Aspire? Is it discontinued? What are its characteristics?
You are very talented, charming & gorgeous... As a seasoned electric guitar player of many, many years, I would love to have a 6 string Viper, most likely in black (due to cost) with gold hardware and frets...Having 6 strings would allow much versatility in using several different alternate guitar tunings...Standard EADGBE...Drop D... DADGAD...Open E... Open G...Open C...etc. Of coarse it would necessitate changing string gauges and some tunings might work better than others....but what fun, and as a guitar player that uses many different effects pedals, Im already well acquainted in that area... Id love to plug it into my BOSS SY-300 guitar synth which does NOT require a hexaphonic pickup system like many of them... it would be plug & play...very cool for sure! With a 2 year waiting list for the build, I could get 2 years of violin practice under my belt to help with the transition....its quite a commitment and price expenditure ($4000) that I need to think carefully about.... but Im so very tempted... Maybe you should get that pink one without frets in a 4 string version?? 😜 Peace ✌🏻❤️
I've got a 19thC German made violin worth about $5000.00 Australian so not a real cheapy but I use Tonicas as they're budget friendly but give a decent sound for the 'non' performing use. I'd use better strings for a recital but as I tend to play quite a bit I need to change strings reasonably frequently and as I said, (and you did too) they're affordable yet give decent sound. My bow is a French made, early 20C bow by A Vigneron and made a huge difference to my sound and cost me $1500.00 au so compared to the violin is up there in $$ value next to the fiddle. Great video, I really enjoyed it and your pretty smile. Thank you, Mark from Australia.
high quality information
Do you have sheet music for this? I’m in orchestra and we are trying to play this for our spring concert!
Are you able to play the violin still?
You're so much fun omg! :) Thanks for the review
Oh my gosh thank you for this!! I couldn’t quite figure it out!!
One is never enough, that is why i have 3 guitars (1 Epiphone Les Paul Custom electric guitar, 1 Ibanez AEG70 electric acoustic guitar, and 1 Casio DG20 Digital Guitar) and 7 keyboards (not listing here), 12 harmonicas, 2 congos and two bongos. I only have one violin (an Yamaha sv-200 electric violin) and after playing violin for 3 weeks, i need another violin, preferably an acoustic violin with a lot of wood. I dont play my sv-200 turned on, because I can play it off through a microphone! Violins are fun!
This helped alot
I don’t have to have sheet music I learned by ear I can’t even read music. I can just listen to it not bragging or anything like that.
I have been looking for a violin case that I could carry by bike. I have a child´s chair on my bike and I need a case that stays higher on my back. Unfortunatelly I couldn´t see in your video, when you wear it, how deep it goes. Do you have any experience carrying it on a bike? I think it may be possible because the higher D holder is not on the top of the case. Thanks for the video.
