I have recently taken up violin and was curious if we have any musicians here. If so, got any sheet music of your favorite songs to share (possibly pony related)?

Its almost like you don't know that the first rule of trumpet players is to assume technical superiority over every other trumpet player. Sad!

I'm just going to defend myself by saying that I'm by no means bad, but I'm also by no means confident enough to accept a formal challenge.

no, I just lack confidence. Plus, I've let my natural talent carry me through most of the time I've played trumpet and I'm not sure how that stands up to someone who's serious.

Bassist here, I play in a local jazz band a few times every year. Sadly I have no scores to speak of, all my sheet music is borrowed and half the time it's chords only anyways.

If you're talking about an upright bass then I agree, that is best bass for a jazz band. Fretless electric is cool but frankly you need a pretty good ear to make sure you're playing the correct notes, and enough skill to be able to take advantage of all the slurs and things a fretless electric allows you to do. Don't get me wrong its a cool instrument, but it seems like a lot of bassists just immediately go for an electric fretless because muh Les Claypool, and just start learning how to make cool sounding noises with it when they should really be learning how to play well first. Also, Jaco Pastorius is the undisputed master of the electric fretless bass and if you disagree I will gouge out your eyeballs and skullfuck you

Im a violinist myself, played in a orchestra long ago so i have quite a bit of stuff and could probably find more if i looked
I can also make sheet music and could get some pony songs written, but right now i wouldnt have time to get them down because of uni
But I have some classic songs sheets ready that i could scan for you, but iunno if you d have trouble since you said you just started and all

Either way, have a quick thing for now
Ps. Look up "Canon in ré"/"Canon in D", its a really nice song and good to train speed with your left fingers, though i d say to focus more on perfecting your right hand and arm

This one. I'd put the introduction part as trumpet with bass, guitar follow and back-up during vocals. The Violin part should be obvious (it sounds like a clarinet).

If you stick with playing the violin long enough to start doing vibrato, for extra fun try playing an electric guitar. You'll probably have my experience of your vibrato style carrying over to it, and it'll sound excellent. Most rock musicians do vibrato on their guitars by pulling the string up to a slightly higher note and releasing back to the original fretted note, in order to do vibrato on a violin you have to perform a sort of oval shaped rocking motion, so your vibrato will sound very different from most guitarists. It was a pleasant surprise when I discovered that's why Steve Vai's vibrato sounds that way, he sought it out while mine carried over from violin to electric guitar. You'll find guitar feels easier to play with notes segmented out for you by the fretboard, violin in comparison feels like trapeze without a safety net.

To me violin vibrato and eletric guitar vibrato are completely different, you dont bend the string on a violin when doing a vibrato like on a guitar, i ve tried to learn eletric guitar and doing vibratos feels pretty awkward personally
In fact for the vibrato on a violin you dont move your finger at all, you pretty much anchor it on the note then 'fake' moving it forward and back, not actually moving it from its place, what really happens is the skin of your finger rolls over the string back and forth, but on a guitar that has no effect because of the frets, actually having to bend the string and all that
Still i never though about doing the oval motion on the guitar tbh, gonna give a try next time i pick it up

You and I have very different meaning for "melody" and "full" sheets it seems, but eh, i guess this works, would send the midi as well, but the site doesnt recognizes the extension and converting it into a mp3 is destoying it, if anyone know where can i upload it that it will just show it outright instead of having to download it d be appreciated
For now have a link: https://mega.nz/#!i5gD1I7J!nWXpmIr48LwxVQYFszawHeEscRN6RdqNXqDMUdYAS0Q

And yea, i d guess guitar wouldnt be written like that, usually being tablature/chord and all, but im not sure which position would be better for the player and i dont know harmonics enough to reverse engineer the chords, here s a base conversion

No one said which trumpet either so made in C, i think this one would how it be in Bb but iunno tbh

Yeah, Bb for me, but that's fine as its only a half-step shift. I'll get right on it.
