Im a fiddler, im looking for a jam partner. Duos, concertos etc.

hmmmm... kung gusto mong makipag-jam, sandamukal ang violinists dito sa Philippines.. anyways, Mark from Valenzuela, Grade3 in violin, in midway of mastering vibrato. I know my classmate plays violin... hes in PPO. am planning to enter there soon. how about you?

hey,

i`m looking for no-practice type of fellow violinists who play from their hearts

..newbie here, may tanong ako .san nyo nabili violins nyo?

..i mean, i own a 12k hofner discounted so i got it for 8k na lng, and cheap strings about P500 all strings..but i`m not altogether satisified with the sound especially the A STRING > ..i`m thinkin of buying a gliga gems 2 over the internet..pero maybe i should just get a newr set of strings? please i need your opinions, cos my sister will kill me if i wouldn`t improve my sound..

Mine is a cheap Cremona..... but i had the soundpost, nut, bridge adjusted(put parchment over A and E string) So it sounds as good as a hand-made one. Oh i had them adjusted by Tamayo violins(If you dont know, Amado Tamayo is a Filipino who studied violin-making in Germany. He makes quality hand-made ones in the Philippines. I plan to have a new one made... about 40,000-80,000 Php.

Anyways, where do you all study violin? I currently study at Lyric(SM Cyberzone). One more question, how many of you already do vibrato?(I do!!!!)

wow..so happy to meet a violin enthusiast here!!! i know lyric, they have one in megamall (closer to my place) i used to study in yamaha ground floor level of megamall, but quit after 6 months,cos the fee is relatively expensive..i was thinking of enrolling to Lyric, but i learned about AWIT a group of UP alumni teaching saturday music classes in 2 christian schools, they charge about P250 a session..not bad

my tone is (i think) gradually improving thanks to my teacher..who`s younger than me..! she`s studying in UP dil and yet a member of Manila Symphony Orchestra..!!

how young are you by the way, Mark?..and how much did it cost you to have alterations done in your violin?

40,000????! woot! gee..i envy you..

i can do vibrato but not as consistent as i want it to be..especially the 1st finger..(o and i have short fingers struggling with a 4/4 violin) :/ ..anung suzuki book ka na?

hey Im a fiddler in central/western florida and looking for a jam partner also.

Hmmmm.... am currently 15yrs old. My teacher says i have good and long fingers that makes me able to do decent vibratos(not bragging) Oh, it only took me fivehundred for the adjustments. Am currently on book 4 with 2nd Sevcik variations, Etudes, and on the middle of Wolfhart`s book. You? How about you?

oh, just so you wouldn`t be confused i`m(kreisler) omelet..i made a post asking about everyone`s violin.. i just added you in my friendster btw ^^

hmmm.... make that.... mga 6 months.
