VIOLIN PROGRESS: ONE YEAR!

In March 2021, I decided to learn to play the violin again, after walking away from music 25 years before. This video shows how I worked from a complete loss of skills to a surprisingly sound rendition of a concerto by Mozart in just a year’s time. How did I do it? Three big factors: 1. A structured approach, full of scales, arpeggios and all those drills that our teachers wanted us to play until we dropped. 2. The excitement of choosing whatever pieces I wanted to play. In formal training, you never get to pick your pieces! 3. The third factor? Well, it’s something that might surprise you. It’s . . . you! That’s right – without an audience, and without so many people from all over the world throwing out applause and a thumbs-up every here and there – I never would have stuck with this endeavor.

Here's some background on my playing history: When I was in my teens, I was tearing up the competitive music world. I scored top ratings in state and regional competitions, and I made the Missouri All-State orchestra. I also made the All-American orchestra – but I could not attend because I did not have $1,000 to pay the fee. I played through college and received scholarships to play in the University of Missouri Philharmonic, even though I was not a music major. A few years after college, however, my career in journalism took over my life. I encountered the same barrier in the news business that had stalled me in the music world: Lack of money. I was an outsider without a trust fund, and I found that to succeed in the top tiers, I had to devote extraordinary energy to every work-related task. I left music behind. Here are some essays I’ve written about the return to playing:   / rebeccaraney   Here’s where you can follow my story: https://raney.ck.page/posts #ViolinProgress #Violin #RecklessViolinist #Violinist #ViolinPlayer #Violinista #Violino #Violon #Geigenspiel #JeuDeViolon #TocarElViolin #Violine #ClassicalMusic
