yes…the sweet melancholic melody of the classical violin or the stunning passionate charm of the electric violin forever thrills and touches the heart of music-lovers…
the secret of the violin lies in its sentiments
i never remember the true reason why i decided to pick up this extraordinary instrument.(in my memory i can’t recall any violin pieces which leads me to the decision)all i knew was that i thought of it as a beautifully structured instrument…the movement of the bow fascinated me…
of course,these reasons weren’t strong enough to kindle that fire within me.yeah.everyone who knows me would know that my relationship with the violin has always been a LDR(long distance relationship)
yea,i wasn’t much of a violinist.still,she amazes me again and again.
the violin is a she because she looks elegant and her ability to convey emotions is simply feminine…(sorry guys:D)
anyway.
i personally adore sentimental violin pieces.so far,i can’t think of a contemporary piece but for the classics,i would say that “meditation” from thais explains it all.
i think that it is the perfect song to show the skill of the violinist.(for experts its not that tough,but as what i say whether the violinist is able to portray the emotions of the music is the essential key)
as for contemporary violin pieces.so far i think vanessa mae is doing great.
classical gas would be one perfect depiction of the evolution of dee violin(its all about speed and the running of the fingers)
for me.i never do well in slow songs(yet).well,i have a certain standard for sentimental songs(for they have the power to move mountains)thus,i tend to feel so agitated with my own music.
as for songs with a faster pace.i have the time of my life.yup.it makes me feel good.its like your fingers and bow going wild.:)seriously,you need to experience it for yourself to understand the sheer pleasure of it.
the violin is a sophisticated creature.it feeds on the “soul”.love grows between you and it the day you realised you have found love in it.
do wait.one day you shall see the difference.this time.i ll be the violinrina…
