Has anyone ever played the violin in the bathroom... Wowwww.... I must say it produces a truly magnificent sound, even when using those standard `cheap ass` metal strings.
Reciting Vivaldi`s Four Seasons over the bog has never been quite so satisfying... Give it a try, I`m sure you`ll be surprised at the true rich tones as they bounce off the wall tiles in an amazing concerto of sound and style... Give it a go!!?

P.S I am not a lunatic!!?

Not the bathroom, but I do play in a fire escape stairwell.

The lack of carpets and other muffling items like furniture & people gives a lot of reverb.

Of course it also reverbs all the squeeks and scapes too...

L-ingOL
Not in the bathroom but in my school`s indoor basketball court.

I once fell into a metal cube... how convient that I was also carrying my violin... the sound was quite remarkable i do say...

i h`ve definitely done the bath room one. haha. it`s great did it w/ flute violin and my vocal work

I`ve done it plenty. Parking garages like the ones at malls and airports are great too.

Wow, must try the bathroom, I could be missing out on such wonderful music! XD Have played in my garden a few times when it was hot, that was fun...had to play quite loudly though...

Try the shower cubicle.

Lol, not much space in my shower cubicle but what a good sound you get in the bathroom! ^_^

Yap it sure is good...BUT don`t do it too often. Caz it blinds u from the real sound.

Yep, I practice in the place it sounds worst, then when you can play well there you`ll be great everywhere! XD

lol, i once remember our strings teacher in high school telling us to practice in the bathroom because it sounds better- and it really does, mainly because the bathroom has hard floors and walls that dont muffle and absorb the sound. so u sound clearer and louder. lol have fun. pachelbel`s canon is also another bathroom winner:-p

So where IS the WORST place to play violin, do you think?

Anyone want to suggest a place, hm?

That really depends on what type of house you have,(trailer, regular house with open ceiling, log cabin...depends). But anyways the worst places to play my cello&violin is the bedrooms, living room and dining room. The best places to play it is the kitchen and basement I think. Never tried the bathroom and it`s too small of a space for my cello to be played. But the funny thing is that no matter where I played my Cello at home, it sounded 1000 times better in the band room, probably because of the much bigger room.
