I'm not sure direct advise such as what you find in books, articles or some courses actually helps all that much - not by itself. I think such advise targets the wrong parts of the brain, the ones for conscious thinking. However, I thi

While it has been mentioned, I want to repeat and emphasize it because it's the main point. What beginners do, after all, is only relevant for beginners, but I think the question is about violin play in general. The issue is that the l

So, the same problem that the poor(er) states in the US have. And yet, they seem to be content to stay within the union - so I think there may be a little more to it than a single variable? I'm open to the argument, it just seems a lit
