We know it can be tough knowing what to look for when buying a violin.Â

Perhaps you are planning to teach yourself via an app or video tutorials, group lessons, or you prefer a lesson with a teacher face-to-face or virtually. We are here to help you find what style of learning is right for you. Â
Our Beginner’s Guide is a great starting point to help you to play the violin. You may find that it’s best just to have a go and we can help you feel able to do this.Â
It’s really important to master the correct technique as early as possible. If you do, you’ll pick it up much more quickly and be less likely to get some of the aches and pains that can develop otherwise including RSI, back and shoulder pain.Â
Learning to read sheet music and learning to play the violin are two completely different skills that need to come together to be a competent musician. We recommend you treat these as two activities and tackle them separately.  Â
Practice, practice and practice! You’ll have days where you make great strides and others may be a struggle. But keep going! Find ways to motivate yourself through those tough sessions. Our guide to violin practice will provide advice in this area.Â

Who Will Assist You To Make Decisions?
Well, that’s exactly what we are here for. Our Founder, Robert Emery, has a thriving career being a musician, so we don’t have to ‘sell you’ music classes or highly-priced courses to make money. Our pals can simply provide serious guidance as pro-performers, and that’s exactly what makes us unique.
Do you know that to teach music, absolutely no qualification is needed. Nothing at all. Zip. That means you might be getting advice about what things to purchase, suggestions & methods from a person who has never formally learnt their musical instrument.
You’d be blown away at the number of violin teachers that don’t understand the difference between a fiddle and a violin! So that’s where our experts come in. And no, compared with other websites which shall stay nameless, each of our experts is real-life, performing, professional performers. They are on the top of their game in either the UK or USA. Some are even household names.
Have You Figured Out What Happens On A Friday?
Every week, on a Friday, I send the four Feature Friday mail. It’s a basic idea that includes 4 outstanding things I”ve discovered that week.
As long as it’s music associated, it could end up in the e-mail. New tracks, techniques, merchandise, reviews – anything at all.
You’ll only be able to see the once a week email if you join below. And we also promise to never, ever spam.
