On A 1 – 10 Scale (10 Being Most Difficult) How Would You Rate Trying To Teach Oneself To Play The Violin ?

11. It’s not easy. Oh at first you can figure out where to put your fingers & some of the first noteson the scale, but technique, that’s difficult.

How Do You Play The E Flat Major Scale On The Violin?

Well, you start with a low 1 on the D string (1-down) from there, you progress to the F natural, which would be 2-down or low 2. The third note would be known to you if you’ve played so much as a D major scale. G is just 3 on the D string. The subdominant, or fourth note is A Flat, which is 3 up (high 3) or 4 down, (low four) also on the D string. If you wish to know the finger pattern for those first four notes, it is 3 – 4 (That is, the first & second finger are spread apart & the third & fourth finger are smushed together)
From there, we move up to the A string. The Dominant or fifth note in the scale is B fat, low one or 1 down on the A. The Sixth note is the C, which is 2 down or low 2 on the A string. The seventh note is D which is three on the A, & the eighth or last note is E flat, Three up or four down on the A string.
Now the reason I say three up or four down is that we are normally encouraged to reach for that note with our third finger. When it is already occupied with another note however, we should certainly employ our fourth finger which isn’t really doing anything else anyway. The finger pattern for the A string would again be 3 – 4.
Now I am going to make it even easier for you, if you have ever played the E major scale. It is exactly the same fingering, just shifted down one half step. If you start on low one or 1 down, you can play an E flat scale exactly as you would an E major scale, just by shifting all of the rest of the fingers with it! Magic!
This is of course, a one octave scale. If you would prefer that I talk you through a two octave scale, give me a shout & I will be glad to help.

Is A 4/4 Scale Violin Bow A Full Sized Violin Bow?

Yes. Violins come in “fractional sizes” (4/4, 3/4, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, even a tiny 1/32). The 4/4 is full size, suitable for nearly all adults. The 7/8 size is rather rare, & only available in the more expensive instruments. It is frequently used by adults who are very petite.
