Violin Answers

I’ve always really liked the fiddle, probably my favorite instrument to listen to. But i can’t stamd it when i hear it played like a violin. And i been thinking about learning to play one, is it hard to learn to play on a busy schedule?

wel, i’m totally new to both violin & western music
i’m just learning everything
so i found this violin finger board chart & also have a music sheet (of twinkle twinkle little star)
now i have a doubt…
same note could be played in different strings(which gives off completely different tones), & it just seemed wrong to play the way i want
for example i can play ‘B’ in both G & A string which gives off completely different tones
is there a rule as such stating i should be using certain string
i hope the question is clear
i’m sooo confused!!!!
please help
thanks

I need it for a solo! FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yeah, it’s pretty advanced. but i think his concerto in F# minor is even harder.
so… this is the “easier” wieniawski.

I mean, i really want to learn how to play the piano, but are there any other great instruments like the piano?
and if not, i also love drums, but someitmes they might get too loud. I already know how to play cello & violin. Do you guys have any good interests?

I recently bought a new violin & would like to practice outside this summer, but I’m afraid the heat might be bad for it. I usually practice around 3 hours a day…would that damage my violin if I’m outside?
Thanks.

I ask this because I am interested in taking up the esraj. I am good at the guitar, but have never used a bow & the esraj uses a bow. Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated!

I just traded a Nintendo NES for a sax & I really want to know how to play it. When I press the different keys, it never changes the note. Do you change the note with the position of your mouth? I play violin, so I have no idea what to do.

I’m 15. I haven’t even touched a piano in 5 years & I only got a few months of actual learning with is practically nothing now. Also, I didn’t even like pianos first. I tried the guitar 4 years ago, too. But, with only a few months of playing, I gave up. I feel like I selfishly wasted my life on video games & tv. Now, I want to try it again. I already have an upright piano in storage. Also, I want to get violin. I don’t really like holding the guitar, & that’s sort of why I don’t play it. I realize that learning to play even 1 instrument takes time. Do you think that this is possible?

Do you still have a pulse, & can convert oxygen to carbon dioxide? Then you are the perfect age. I was at a luncheon yesterday & a friend who is about 65 told me that she has decided to take cello lessons – & she had called the cellist in my chamber music group to teach her! The guy who was cleaning my oil burner this week, knowing we are musicians (there is stuff all over the house . . ) asked if I knew anyone body who could start him in tenor banjo lessons! We get this all the time! Heck, at my age, I have decided that I need to work out with a personal trainer – started 3 weeks ago. Totally new experience for me – I have been a *bowl of Jello* for years. So – starting ANYTHING is good for you. Keeping it going is BETTER.
Call a GOOD teacher – one who has a degree in music, & preferably is a certified teacher – call our local school district. THOSE teachers will do more for you & have more patience than a college teacher, who is used to working with more advanced players. GOOD LUCK!!

Or a piano or Cello or Guitar etc It usually looks …..?

What are some good books?

HELP

im talking about violons, violas, cellos, Double basses. I heard that the viola is the hardest.

Hmmmmm……..I have no idea…

I’m going to take violin, & I’m also interested in the cello. So I was wondering if after taking the violin for maybe one or two years, would the cello come pretty easy? Someone told me I could take them both at once, but I know that wouldn’t work because I’d get the notes & finger placements mixed up. Please help.
Thank you!

I know he plays violin, but I swear on one song, it sounds like he is playing a trumpet & I thought I saw an ad on TV for an album in which he plays the trumpet. I am probably mistaken, but I do know that he learned to play guitar as a child & that he sings, so it would not surprise me if he played all kinds of instruments. I love classical & especially when it is done with such enthusiasm & style.

for violins what is D major, G major, C major, F major, A major, & d minor ? help! please! i need to kno!
