The adventures of an adult beginner violinist. In May 2016, at age 26, I fulfilled a lifelong dream: learning to play the violin. It's a challenging but amazing journey! On this channel I share my progress, performances, musical adventures and advice. My name is Marijke. I work three days a week as a teacher in elementary school. I live with my husband in a cozy town in The Netherlands. ✨ Instagram: @marijke.violin
