It varies for each individual, but typically it takes several years of consistent practice to master the violin. Daily practice, guidance from a skilled teacher, and dedication are key factors in progressing towards mastering the instrument.
Banjo Paterson has not won any major literary awards, but he is celebrated for his significant contributions to Australian literature, particularly through his bush ballads and poems that capture the spirit of the Australian outback. His work remains influential in shaping the cultural identity of Australia.
In the book "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair, Jurgis Rudkus played the violin. He dreamed of becoming a world-famous musician before his family's struggles in the harsh realities of the American meatpacking industry changed his path.
Banjo Paterson was a supporter of the Federation and wrote poems and articles advocating for a united Australia. He used his writing to promote the idea of a national identity and a unified government for the colony. His work helped to inspire and unite Australians during the Federation movement.
Banjo Paterson changed his name from Andrew Barton Paterson to "Banjo" because he preferred the nickname which was given to him by his family due to his interest in playing the banjo. He became well-known by this name in his literary career as a poet and writer in Australia.
"The Swagman's Rest" by Banjo Paterson is a poem that tells the story of a swagman (wandering worker) resting by a billabong (watering hole) when he encounters a jumbuck (sheep) that he decides to steal. The poem highlights themes of bush life, the struggle for survival, and the consequences of theft in the Australian outback.
Itzhak Perlman, "Massenet" (Meditation from Thais)

If you have not used the rosin on your bow before, take a nail file and file the top of the rosin down so that it looks a bit scratchy. Then run the scratchy side of the rosin up and down the horsehair of the bow in long even strokes. You know you have enough rosin on your bow when you draw the bow across the string and it leaves a white rosin trace. Remember to wipe off your strings with a towel when you're done playing to keep the rosin from building up. When applying rosin to the string do not touch the horsehair with your hand because the oils from your hand will ruin the horsehair if you touch it too much.

Only poor quality or old rosin needs to be scratched before use. I would recommend that having a clear tone tells you when you have enough rosin, if you go as far as leaving rosin dust on the string, you definitely have enough.
Truthfully I would say that bass is the best instrument. That is if you are looking for a challenge. It is a very large instrument with a large range of notes that can range from a low E (or B if you have a extension or five string bass) to a high G or D. If you want a beautiful instrument you can play cello or violin. But unless you are amazing at either of those instruments you are not going to get very far. There is much less competition if you play bass. This is a completely biased opinion. I hope your instrument searching goes well!
The viola is one-seventh in size of the violin, and the violin is one-fifth higher in pitch.
The cost depends on the quality of the string you are using. Mine usually cost around $25.00. You can get them for either a very low price, or a higher price.
The viola, to make it easier for the viola player aka the violist to read music on the staff.
A copy of a 1721 Stradivarius violin is actually not worth very much. On the retail market they can be found for about $175 to $400.
