Attempting to Play
Over the last couple of days, I have been practicing the basics on my violin. This would consist of some practice exercises that I have found online where I go back and forth from note to note so I can become more familiar with what I am doing. Now that I have had some practice doing that, I have been feeling a bit more confident.
Today I started to do some warm up exercises before I begin to practice just to get me in the right mode. Even thought this is the first time I have practiced them, I can already tell the difference. It is like stretching before beginning to work out for me.
After my warm up for the day I decided it was time to practice a song. I decided upon "Twinkle Twinkle" since I remember that I used to be able to play it when I was younger. This did not get as well as I planned the first time around, but I kept at it and eventually it began to sound a little like the song. I know it will take time, a lot of time, but eventually I would love to be able to play "The Devil Went Down to Georgia". Till that day I will just have to keep practicing and keep my violin stored in a safe spot.
