In my side the world, almost every violist or classical Instrumentalist I've known is self taught. There are very little available resources like you have here in this video. With time, the passion fades away when the incoming responsibilities of an adult sets in. We still love our violins and we will continue to play while we have some breath left. #Wakandaforever
Im 13 and I’m I love with violin th last week I relished I love it so much I want to go to julliard, I am working harder than I ever have right now it’s getting harder every day but watching videos like this helps me stay motivated! Thanku for creating such an amazing place!❤
Really nice videoo, makes me wish i could have picked up an instrument sooner though😭 i only started tenor saxophone this year:( its so nice seeing people make music their profession though:))
Scottish Bassist here, This is really inspiring and really nice to see what happens musically on the other side of the world! thank you for sharing this with us
I'm 14, and I've been playing the viola for a little less than a year. I always wonder if I can ever get into this prestigious school by not playing as much as others in the future.
Focusing on music- whether at Julliard or any other non-university music school- seems splendid. Everything one does helps them grow as a musician. Conversely, when one is studying at a high school (especially a small one with a poor music program), they are forced to waste energy on things that do not help them improve (brass players understand this especially). I cannot wait until life feels like Summer vacation all of the time; I can play etudes, excerpts, exercises, and solos that help me improve, and I can do so for more than a mere two hours each day.
This clip truly makes me miss the violin. I used to have a strong drive for music, and that no longer exists. I still pick up my fiddle and do some scales, old songs I'd learned, and fiddle tunes. But the willingness to drown myself in music again is not there. This video gives me a small taste of that love I once had.
I play viola and even tho I go to a school with only a band RUclips is a help and I look forward to reaching my goal of going to Juilliard my dream school
Wonderful -- here is more information about the program and degree on our website: www.juilliard.edu/music/instruments/harp. You can also email musicadmissions@juilliard.edu if you have specific questions about the process. Thanks for watching!
my heart started aching just watching this vid. I am so inspired to push harder than ever! I feel as if I just have to push for this! I can't wait to see how my life turns out with my music career!
You are inspiring. I love music. It's part of my life and will always be in my heart but it's hard to pursue it as a career. But I still love music performance.
Gosh I played a Rachmaninov as a 14 and hated it. (Piano by the way) I am now 17, and.......I never want to pick another Rach. again. I will to challenge myself though
I love music with a burning passion. Music is my life, couldn’t imagine my life without the special connection/bond I’ve been blessed to have with music. I have been playing the violin since 4th grade and I’m in 11th now. I’m joining chamber orchestra as well as treble Choir which are the competitive groups at my school. I’m honestly very nervous about life because I’m unsure about what I should do. I know I want music to be incorporated in my life and potentially a career for me but I don’t know if I’m personally Good enough to get into a great school like Juilliard because I like playing the violin but I know there’s others who are better from taking private lessons, I love dancing but yet, I’ve never taken dance classes before in my entire life. I love acting and being apart of musicals etc but again, others are better than me from their advantages of doing many musicals and being able to take acting classes. On another note, I also love singing. I’m an Alto and I love doing all of these things equally so it’s very hard to decide and even if I wanted to apply for a school like this and take the next step music wise, I always have that question of “am I good enough”... I guess the three top things I love doing is dancing, singing and playing my violin. I also have found myself interested in songwriting and playing piano but ugh I don’t really know, it’s hard to decide because another question I’d have for myself is can I do them all because I feel like I’d have to choose between them all and stick to just one thing and Lord knows, I simply wouldn’t be able to because my life revolves around the music and the arts world itself, it doesn’t revolve around one part of art like dance or just drama or just vocals, or instruments, or songwriting, instead it’s all for me. Then there’s this side of me that loves helping people, specifically children so I could settle for a career that helps children like a teacher or a social worker but then my question would be “would I truly be satisfied” and I don’t want to miss out on an experience I could have with music but also trying to distinguish if I should just keep music as a hobby and do what everyone else does as a career will be best for me. I’ve never wanted to settle for a job or career that doesn’t involve my passion because my passion is just apart of who I am but I fear that me not having the same advantages as others, will truly set me back even if I wanted to try to apply to an amazing school like this that would allow me to gain so much knowledge and go far.
Anna and the Violin lol... thank you very much. Never think you’re too young to be of help to anyone. You certainly have given me something to think about for sure . Honestly, , nothing is off the the table right now.
My name is Valeria and I am 14 years. I am from Mexico, Oaxaca and I started studing music one year ago, now I am pretty sure I wat to study music, I really wish I could go to Julliard in some more years. That is my dream :)
I really want to apply to Juilliard I graduate in 2019 but I’m going to be honest I don’t think I’m good enough to get into Juilliard I play cello I’ve been doing it for 6-7 years now but I’ve only had about 1 year of lessons and I’ve taught myself almost everything I know I just don’t know what I should do
