I want to take up the cello but am I too old?

Question:

I want to take up the cello but am I too old?

or the violin, but I'm extremely fond of the cello. I'm 15 and people who play stringed instruments that are my age are very good because they've been playing since 4th grade!
Is time the best way to get good? Or can you get good if you practice a lot for a few months?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: THERE IS NO AGE ON MUSIC!!! just go out and find yourself a private toutor they have been playing forever they will help you! in fact my gradmother who has never had music experience in her life at age 81 is taking up the violin if she can do it you can too!! Also i'm 16 and have played piano and oboe but just reccently took up the guitar!
GOOD LUCK!!:)
