i am 11 years old and really want to learn to play the violin. i am wondering about some "obstacles" that might be difficult to overcome in playing the violin.
this is the third instrument that i am going to play. the first one was piano for 2 years. the second was guitar for 1 year.

It’s quite difficult, especially if it’s your first instrument. Three main things I can think of: posture (learning to hold it correctly); production of good tone with the bow; and learning where to put your left-hand fingers – unlike a guitar you don’t have frets to help you.
