String Instruments.

Hi!

Sorry (as usual) for the lack of post. I am super lazy these days, and I can't even tell you why because I don't have any specific reason. I'm just lazy.

Anyway, that's not what I'm going to talk about now. As you can see from the title, I'm gonna talk about String Instruments. Well, to be precise, those who can play String Instruments. Now now, I'm not going to talk about myself in this post because I don't and I can't play any String Instruments. 

I can only play Melodica for a bit, but I'm definitely not an expert or anything, I just play it for fun. I can also say that playing Melodica (or anything alike) is another one of my hobby when I was younger. I like to recreate songs (or sort of making a cover) but as I got older, I rarely touch my Melodica anymore. But I still play some kind of Piano games on my phone lol.

Sorry, I get carried away. Anyway, as I said. I can't play any String Instruments, the least I can and actually know how to use is a Melodica, and perhaps a Piano. That's why I adore those who can play any String Instruments well. Doesn't mean I don't adore anyone else that can play any other Musical Instruments. It's just, there's something about String Instruments that got me attached.

The reason I'm talking about this is because, recently I just listened a Violin cover from a song called Arcade. And I'm totally in love. It's really beautiful and well played. Okay I know, since I'm not an expert in String Instruments (in this case, Violin) I don't actually know if those cover are really well played or not (as in technique and other stuff). But I can say the music that comes out from the Violin is true magic. It's like a spell that got me addicted. 

To be honest, I don't usually listen to a Violin cover of songs that I like, instead I look up for Piano cover because I'm more familiar with Piano. And the video I'm talking about, I only knew about it because I found it by accident on my Youtube recommendation (thank you Youtube, this time you actually recommend something good). 

So, I listened to 2 videos. They're a different person from a different Youtube Channel, but they both make the cover of the song using a Violin (I'll put the link to their video down below).

Despite they're a different person, using a different Violin. There's something similar about them that I noticed. Such as, the way they look into their Violin, the way their finger hold the right string at the right time, the way they move the Violin bow. There's just something beautiful about it. And the unity of all that beautiful things, create such a beautiful melody. Oh god I don't know what I'm talking about or what I'm trying to say. 

Huh, the point is. I really adore those who can play any String Instruments, not just Violin. Because I can't, I always thought that it's hard to learn playing String Instruments. But they can do it. Even though it seems hard (even impossible) for me, there are people that can play String Instruments and actually create a beautiful music. I just wanna say that I adore those people. I adore you that can use the tip of your finger to create music, to create magic. 

Welp, I guess that's it from me. Sorry that this ended up so messy just like my other posts. But I still hope anyone that read it will understand what I'm trying to say.

Oh, and here's the link of the video I'm talking above.

Yup, that's it from me.

I'll see you soon. 

With hope,
