Hi i love music and actually teach violin or fiddle as it is commonly known.  Do you play?
I used to play the piano a bit that's all. How long have you played?
I began playing the american fiddle which is a small viol which is ealiy portable. I was only 4 years old.  To long ago to count now!! 
Wow that's impressive. You must be good. Were you classically trained? What style of music do you play?
I was trained but not classically.  My mentor was into old time music of north american folk so i play a bit of that and some jazz 
I see, folk music is pretty interesting. Have you heard of Lindsey Stirling? I think she plays the violin.
Yes I have indeed.  She is amazing.  She plays violin, dances, is a composer and an artist and she is only 32!
