Violins
"The true mission of the violin is to imitate the accents of the human voice, a noble mission that has earned for the violin the glory of being called the king of instruments."
Charles-Auguste de Beroit (1802-70)

Violins. Those things made of wood with four strings. Players of which can quite easily be called "screechfiers" when first learning the instrument, running the risk of "running foul of the law" of their family's or their neighbours hearing. But once perfected, even at a beginners level, the sound of this instrument, which has been styled as the "nearest to the human voice" is actually quite an emoitve and versatile instrument.
Now before all that, you may well be asking. "Ermmmm...why all this "sales pitch" when I don't know the first thing about this instrument?". Well...."sales pitch" is a strong phrase 😌, but a point you have indeed. First things will and must be first. There are several things to initially pick up about this instrument, (and that pick-up is not a reference to sound amplification. 😄) Click below to find out more.

There are several sizes of the violin, and it is imperative that you start out on your journey with the right one. The largest size is 4/4, what we call full size, which tend to cater for children over the age of 12 up to adult. The other main ones are three quarter size (3/4), half size (1/2), and quarter size (1/4). You can also get smaller violins than these, and bigger, but that's another instrument. 😉 Click below to find the size right for you.
