Just did a typing run on monkeytype, and I was wondering how it compares to others. I also don't type using the normal patterns, or home position and stuff. (This was the first run of a session)
As the title says, I'm in two pieces. I've done a few years of piano, and will continue, but I really liked the idea of a violin, so I started that as well, and I've been going for about 6 months, and I'm sure this is something that happens to everyone, but it doesn't feel fun, more like a chore at the moment. I'll be going back into lessons after summer soon, and my opinion might change, but I'm starting to wonder if I'd like cello more. This is only based on sound, I have no ergonomic issues with violin that make me want to do cello. But also, violin sounds more versatile, while cello typically seems quieter/slower. And I'd want to play it as a solo instrument, or leading. I wouldn't want to be stuck accompanying. Posted in r/Cello as well, to gauge biases.
