I...I've been wanting to take violin for years. I have a small, medium, and large - my oldest son took Suzuki violin from the daughter of the man who introduced the Suzuki method to the United States. My only problem with that is they will only ever be able to play music that has "violin" music - if you want them to be able to play along with other songs without the music (like at church, in a youth group or a band) you need them to learn 1) how to read and play which Suzuki does and 2) how to use chords and play. Sadly, my son who took for 8 years, can only play if he can find the violin music for the song - songs in the youth band and college band often only had chords.<br /><br />However, when my younger ones get a little older, I'm going to start taking violin!<br /><br />Merry After-Christmas - Enjoy your violin!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2984881181941900038.post-50215416981559509992009-12-28T14:42:51.932-05:002009-12-28T14:42:51.932-05:00What a wonderful present!
