Violins

Clarence requested to learn violin few weeks ago. Asked him why the sudden interest, he told us he watch the strings ensemble perform in his school and he thinks violin is nice. So we told him to wait till end of his SA2 before starting violin lessons. Vincy also wants to learn violin simply because gor gor is learning. Gor gor is her idol. Have already signed them up for violin classes. Both will commence their first lesson in November.

Bought 2 violins for them yesterday (3/4 size for Clarence and 1/8 size for Vincy):

 

As Clarence has piano and guitar background, we believe he will pick up violin very quickly. In fact, he learnt how to play twinkle twinkle little star yesterday at the shop with some guidance from the boss Mr Tong.
Not very well played but I think not bad for a first timer:



An example of how awful the violin can sound when not played well. Haha!
