The violin-fixer is absolutely correct!

The few lessons will make sure that your slightly bigger than a 12-year old left hand fingers, wrist, thumb etc. are all in the correct place and that your posture and bowing action etc. are right for your current physique (I too played violin until I was 12, and found that I was a fair bit different in size now!)

The orchestra will give you a regular rehearsal, practice playing with others, and an incentive to keep getting better. That's why I've just started going to the Irish session at the Rathmore on Wednesday's ... though that's currently mostly me on guitar, but I'm going to practice and get lessons on the fiddle then go back for fiddle lessons (ditto bodhran! And maybe tin whistle)
