Proficiently? A Lifetime.
Anyone can play a few notes on most instruments ... there is a huge difference between "playing notes" and "making music". They are not the same!
I've been playing classical organ for 48 years - I've yet to "master" the instrument.
it took me like a few seconds to learn one note but it took me three years to get good
Sorry, but this is impossible. It takes months to learn the violin, and years to perfect it. Take lessons from a good teacher.
Violin for dummies is great. To master the violin can take a lifetime...just saying.
Hitting a ball against a wall is something we automatically learn from birth.
Oboe or violin. Oboe is definitely the hardest wind instrument and violin is definitely the hardest string instrument. I had a violin teacher from Russia and she said "In America the hardest instrument to play is the oboe. But in Russia the violin is the hardest instrument to play." I lean towards violin not just because I play it but if you think about it all you have to do with the oboe is learn the fingerings and the breath....(which does take a long time to get right). In violin you have to learn a lot of different fingerings and and they do not have keys you have to learn how to put your fingers on in the correct place. Violin also just has a lot of music written for it. (more than oboe). But it is a still a matter of opinion. I've played the Oboe for a year, and now the bassoon-both double reed instruments. I actually think bassoon is much harder, although they're both double reeds, bassoon is a much bigger instrument, and requries a lot of patience, and a lot of musical ability. I don't know about the violin though!
To learn hand vibrato,(the best type of vibrato) it did not take long for me to learn how to. I have been playing violin for 9 years and I remember it taking me no more than 4-5 days. You just have to practice it a lot, though

There is no great way to try and guess how long it would take you to become good at playing the violin. It varies from person to person and some people have a natural gift to pick up the instrument much faster.
It depends how long you practice every day

You do not need to know the specific violin notes. You can pick up any simple piano version of the music, and just play the notes on the treble stave. You could even just try to play it by ear. It will not take long to work out the correct notes.
all u hav 2 do is take everything off exept ur violin. then dance
Institutions that offer classes for learning to play the violin in Canada include the La Canada School of Music and another institution called Take Lessons. These are both great institutions for learning to play the violin in Canada.
You should play the violin, it is classical and has a beautiful sound.Wow, I totally disagree. The violin is terribly difficult to get an agreeable sound in the beginning. It can take many weeks of scales and exercises before you can play the most basic of songs.The banjo is an instrumental that has been in one form or another around nearly as long as the violin. One form of the banjo the Akonting started in Africa and was brought over here by slaves.Using basic chord shapes and a simple strum you can play a simple song in just a few hours or less.But, if you like frustration go for the violin and give it a few years.
