Violin Answers

so i’ve been playing violin for 6 years now, but i was thinking about switching to viola, because i think i’ll have a better chance of getting into a music college, like Juilliard, if i switch. I also like the sound of the viola better than the violin. would i be able to learn the viola pretty fast if i already know how to play violin (by fast i mean a couple years)?
Thanks!

I have my own violin at home & I can borrow another one from school. I don’t want to bring mine to school. But is it OK to play two different violins? Because every violin is different, right? What if their differents effect my posture or bowing or fingering?

I am looking at something between $100 & (at the absolute most) $300. I have been looking at perhaps getting an electric violin, because I am currently in an apartment & it would be handy to be able to practice without having to worry about disturbing my neighbours. Again, any suggestions? Anything would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I really desperatly wanna play this song on violin i can take the cello version & use it on violin but anybody know?!?!?!?!?

I love to play violin & I am very interested in buying a book about the History of violins. I don’t want to spend alot of money

where can i find One Republic “Apologize” sheet music for violin online for free?

I have been looking for the sheet music for weeks now & have not been able to find it.

(Please be specific.) I think they’re deleted scenes. I know I saw in a commercial advertising the DVD someone shoving a violin bow down their throat. Are the extra scenes good? Is it worth buying for someone who found the movie to be ok?

If not, what are the notes of the strings on a violin?

I was trying to tune my G-String & it broke & left an imprint. Should I be worried. Also, It’s a cheap violin. I paied $58. This is also a temporary violin. I’m just learning to play & am catching on very quickly. I also ordered some new strings, too.
I also noticed that this question sounds rather wrong, too! >_<

Title says all. No orchestra parts please.

I have a 5-string electric violin & i haven’t been playing it long, so naturally i bought some Dominant strings to replace the horrible strings that always seem to come with new instruments. Including the low 5th C string, they cost just over £50 (the C string was almost half of it). I changed them under the supervision of a teacher on Thursday. Since, they have needed constant tuning as new strings do & while using the fine tuner today (Saturday), the G string broke (no pun intended). It popped out from the ball. Being an experienced guitar player, i have never had a problem of this kind with new strings on a guitar & if i did it wouldn’t be as much of a problem since guitar strings are NOWHERE NEAR as expensive (and apparently better quality)
I’m going to put a crappy old Dogal in its place for now, but is there some kind of guarantee that expensive new strings have against something like this, as i really shouldn’t have to pay for another. Should i contact the retailer i bought them from & ask to send it back for a replacement?

I can’t seem to find them on the home page anywhere, I’m looking for the violin music.

I saw this picture of him holding a violin, but can he actually play?…http://www.hipersonica.com/images/morris…

I’m trying to find violin sheet music for “shipping out to boston” by the Dropkick Murphys. Any idea’s where to find it?

thanks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…

The instrument was played during Beijing Beijing. It was dark in color strapped to the front of them & played with what looked to be a violin bow.

We’re getting married on 9/9/06 in a small chapel. We are expecting 80 guests. We are Christian. We are not having any soloists sing. We have access to an acoustic guitar player & a piano player & possibly a violin player for our wedding music. What is a good song that would relate to a wedding celebration or asking God to bless the union or something like that that the congregation could sing together?
We don’t mind printing the words out for the guests, but the tune should be easy enough that anyone could sing along & not feel tension to hit very high or very low notes.
Any suggestions?

omg i love that song, does anyone have or know the violin part of it? i wanna learn it. the beginning part & middle-ish part.
thanks !!
