Tips and Likelyhood of me becoming a musician?

November 5, 2014 18:39

Hi, so, I'm a violinist that's been playing the violin since I was 4. I decided recently that I'd like to become a professional violinist, considering the risks. I have currently received my RCM 8 an year ago, but I am to be said to have the playing level of an RCM 10 player. I have been in 4 different ensembles since my 4rth grade, involving two chambre orchestras and 2 symphonies. I have recently started practicing really often and received lessons. I am also playing at a school that offers a strings program, enabling the fact I can practice my techniques more often in school now. Are there any tips I can receive? Is there a possibility of me becoming a successful musician? I do plan to get my ARCT soon. Thank you, please respond even if you only have a few seconds.
