  Can we exchange "Crazy arms" for the "Wacky waving inflatable arms flailing tube man arms." For some reason, it freaks the cat out less.

  I'm 70, and just starting on my violin-playing journey. I doubt that Andre Rieu or The Royal Albert Hall will ever call to invite me to make a guest appearance and I doubt that I will ever play in a rock band. Irrespective of that, your advice is excellent! I use CENS ear defenders for other activities (shooting) - they are superb. Thank you.

  Thank you for sharing this. I've played many instruments over the years, and I'm now returning to the fiddle after two decades of letting it lie fallow. I used to get a lot of neck and shoulder pain and tiredness, made worse by busking, playing in a folk rock band, and in cramped pub sessions, and it's starting to return. I just found this channel after looking for left thumb, shoulder, and chin rest advice, and those videos already helped me. This kind of advice is gold dust to a self-taught player of my age (66). I'm very lucky (in many ways) to be married to a professional violinist, who is helpful and supportive, but simply doesn't have time to teach this kind of thing, (and in any case, it's just too weird to have a partner as your teacher, especially as she doesn't play folk/traditional music). A few years ago she became unable to play because of her right shoulder, which at first was treated as bursitis, but in the end turned out to be a build-up of chalky deposits on two tendons, causing excruciating pain. Luckily, there's a microsurgery sonic treatment that worked extremely well, and she recovered within days. However, she was told that this problem is not uncommon for violinists to develop, so worth bearing in mind if you start getting chronic shoulder pain.

  SHOULDER REST RECCOMENDATIONS LONG NECK LENGTH 1. NEW KorfkerRest - LUXURY & HIGH QUALITY - HOW TO SAY "I LOVE YOU" TO A VIOLIN PLAYER Please note that the Korfker is not mentioned in this video. I have not tried it yet, but I want one. I hear they are worth every penny. I imagine they don't sell smaller sizes as I couldn't find them. I've also heard they are highly adjustable so should suit ANY neck length.

These are expensive so I wouldn't recommend taking the risk if your neck is really short. NO SHOULDER REST? Try using one of these products to make that work for you.

  As a necromancer of old long-neglected violins I have a huge collection of rosin that has come along to my possession in the cases they come in. I have read some people saying rosin deteriorates and "goes off" with age. I have never found evidence of this. My daughter prefers the ancient black rosin . I've loads of it in little old Victorian cardboard boxes - giving her a lifetime supply. It would be interesting to see what happens to black rosin in a tropical climate.
