Online violin online lessons? Arco: Arco means with the bow and often appears in music after pizz. (pizzicato or plucked) passages of music.

Sometimes a movement of a piece of music will be called “Adagio”; Piano: Piano is written p and means soft.

Violin: The violin or “fiddle” is a string instrument which is played with a bow. It is the smallest member of the string family of orchestra instruments. The violin has 4 strings. The names of the strings are E, A, D and G. The violin is very similar to the viola, but the violin has plays higher pitches. The violin comes in fractional sizes 1/64 to 3/4 and of course the 4/4 size violin.

Violin parts : Chinrest – The violin chinrest is actually a misnomer because when holding the violin your JAW actually sits in this part of the violin. Violin chinrests are usually ebony but also come in many different types. Ferule – The Violin Bow Ferule is a small metal piece that covers the hairs at the frog end of the bow. The hairs and wedged in place under the Ferule with a small piece of wood. The Hairs are not glued in so do not pull loose hairs out, cut broken bow hairs instead with nail clippers or scissors.

How to change atrings? Remove the old string: First we need to remove the old string. Simply loosen the peg for that string and gently pull the end of the string out of the peg hole. Now the peg can come completely out of the peg box so be careful not to drop it. Remove the end of the string from the tail piece or fine-tuner. It is very important that you only remove one string at a time so that the bridge stays in place. To change all the strings on a violin, start with the A string and move down to D and G, changing the violin E string last since it is the smallest and most sensitive string. Use the same technique for Viola and Cello saving the A for last.
