About the course

In this class, you will learn how to play the violin, even if you have little to no prior experience…

We start from the very basics of how to hold the violin, the bow, how to read music, how to tune, how to play notes on the violin, etc. and we cover every piece of theory and technique that you will need as a beginner to progress as a violin player. We essentially take you by the hand and walk you through every step of the way, in order for you to get an experience as similar as possible to hiring a violin instructor.

By the end of this course, you will be able to play the violin at a near intermediate level, and you will be taught the following:

  • How to read music
  • How to play the bow on the violin
  • How to tune the violin
  • What is  staccato
  • What is legato
  • What is an accent
  • What is a grace note
  • What is a scale
  • What is an arpeggio
  • What is pizzicato
  • What is arco
  • How to play different dynamics
  • How to play slurs
  • How to play slurs with staccato or legato
  • What is rit.
  • How to tune without a tuner (advanced)
  • How to perform vibrato
  • and much more…

In addition to learning all the following, we also help you master these material by providing trainings, as well as implementing all that we learn in the violin songs that we play together as well

What can you learn from this course?

In this course, we cover 17 songs, ranging from beginner level to a near intermediate by the end. Our goal is to learn playing these songs one by one throughout the course, and as we learn a new song each time, we will also be able to see our progression since beginning the course, since every songs builds on what we learned before and is therefore more complicated than the previous one.

Anytime you reach a lesson where we go over how to play a new song, download the sheet music from the resources tab, and attempt playing the song. If you’d like to get either mine or your fellow students feedback on your performance, you can upload either an audio or video file of you playing each of these songs.

Our goal is to play these songs one by one throughout the course, and by the end of the course our main project is to play song 17 on the violin. Once you have completed this stage of the project, you may record either an audio or a video of you playing song 17 on your violin and upload it here.

Once you have uploaded a recording of song 17, you will be able to finish the class.

Best of luck,
