Non-Fiction
A commoner's guide to playing violin atrociously. Side-effects may include: being banished from your home (due to your horrible violin skills) or a very stressful life. Sequel to "A Wealthy Man's Guide to Playing the Violin Well." And as Friedrich Nietzsche says, "Without music, life would be a mistake."

  • Tips for my fellow Viola players!

Have you ever stuffed up a solo at a concert? Been told you've been playing your instrument wrong despite the fact you've been playing it for eight years? Had a conductor yell in your face because it was meant to be a C SHARP? Talked to your fellow musical geniuses about an instrument you play and then realised they have no idea what a flugelhorn is? I could go on forever. After all, it is a rant book. But that's not the point. Be prepared to laugh the rosin off your bow with some pretty relatable rants about how life as a musician isn't necessarily all smooth gliding. Possibly literally for string players. Especially when doing spicatto. Written by a slightly experienced musician herself, who may or may not know what she's talking about. You'll have to find out for yourself. It's even in her name: Violin1st4 Completed.
