Resolution

I have two great passions in my life besides my family and my church, they are music and photography. My husband bought me a violin about 13 years ago and I taught myself how to play it. Since I already knew how to read music it was quite easy for me to learn the violin.
However I did take a years worth of lessons to learn the art of bowing and the correct way to hold the violin. I am now part of a string ensemble with some girls from my church which has been wonderful...so my resolution for this year is to become a better violinst and challange myslelf to learn difficult pieces and not be so afraid to play for a crowd. P.S. My name is Teri but for some reason "Cunninghams" is what is showing up. I think this site is wonderful and it is so nice to see all of your beautiful pictures.

Good for you! I'm a violinist, and violin teacher, and I love it when adults decide to learn. It is never too late! :) Playing the violin is such a great way to express yourself... I love it. What particular pieces are you planning to learn?
