Is it possible to learn the violin by yourself and get into a

Yes

Use youtube as a guide.

>reasonable skill level
Depends on your definition of "reasonable skill level"

If it's an orchestral instrument, the standards are higher if it's a guitar or bass.

>>71878303
Einstein learned the universe by himself, so a piece of wood is not harder to learn

>>71878303
you might be somewhat competent but you'd be putting a lot of unnecessary work on yourself. Teach yourself for a bit then get a teacher. Put your ego aside, because in actuality, you probably will sound like complete dogshit at that point in time. work your ass off and reap it's benefits. all on ur dumbass to do it

>>71878338
Nah, he was wrong about a lot of things, like the steady state theory and quantum mechanics

Enough to play ~10 songs without fucking them up.

>the standards are higher if it's a guitar or bass.

I learned the guitar on my own too. Did you mean to say the guitar is actually harder?

>>71878307
I barely used youtube when i was learning the guitar, though. Is self-education more necessary for the violin?

>>71878307
youtube won't teach you shit

violin requires extremely complex technique and form to play. the only way to learn is from an instructor.

How did the guy that invented the violin learn how to play it?

>>71878427
Too bad he dedicated his life to that shit, OP needs to split his time on masturbation, school and shit-posting on 4chan.

>>71878450
This is correct

>Enough to play ~10 songs without fucking them up.
thats easy then, also you are not telling us the complexity of said songs

>>71878406
t. teacher
i have read many faggots like you in reddit it turn they are profesional teachers every time.

>>71878303
Definitely. I mean think about it, at least one persone in history had to have learned to play violin without a teacher

>>71878398
>I learned the guitar on my own too. Did you mean to say the guitar is actually harder?
I mean the standard of being a reasonably skilled player is lower guitar/bass than violin or orchestral instruments.

You could start your first band within 6 months of playing guitar; try joining a string quartet after playing violin for 6 months and you'll get laughed at

That sounds like a challenge.
