Violin Hunting Too!

  Amber here, just wanted to add more about yesterday. So we went to two different music stores and Ashley's teacher tried and tested each violin. I learned a lot about the instrument and even came across this little guy:

  It's the same brand and model as my guitar tuner but it's made for only four strings; a violin and mandolin tuner ^_^ Didn't know there was such thing until then!

  A little into our violin testing, this group of college students form the school close by came into the shop (which was pretty big, BTW), and did this [fun-looking] jam session. They were using all the display instruments and playing pop songs ^_^

New Project

  Hi :) It's Amber. We didn't get to finish doing Amazing Grace, but were  doing something new again; Blowing in the Wind by Peter, Paul, and Mary. It's an old song but Mom was in love with it...

  I'm using my guitar for this one, I've only figured out as far as the intro, though, and am using this video as reference: YouTube: Peter Paul & Mary - Blowin in the wind. Ashley is also doing a violin version of the same song... curious of the outcome ^_^


  Went to the music shop today. Ashley needs a new violin. According to her teacher her fingers are getting longer. Since we were already there, I brought my good old guitar tuner {who seems to be feeling down lately -_-}. According to the guy in the store, my tuner needs new batteries. So that's what I did next; I bought batteries in the camera shop right across. The batteries were only fifty pesos for two, and I now have an accurate and happy tuner :D

  Videos soon... hopefully :)
