Violin Beginner

[texasbluebonnets]

hello.

I am not sure if this is a good place for my question or not.

I am actually trying to learn to play the violin. and since it's a string instrument, and I had heard about this site,I thought maybe someone here could help.

I prefer to learn in the comfort of my own home, and consider myself a pretty good learner.

Can someone direct me to a online beginners site for violin instruction?

thanks for any help you can offer.

Hey, welcome to the forum! When do you plan to start your first fiddle? I had an acquaintance years ago who made them in NYC. They were beautiful with great sound. Do you want to play classical (my daughter's learning now), country/ western, jazz, blues (ala Papa John Creach), folk, bluegrass or whatever you fancy at that moment?

There are some great kits and books out there. Get catalogs from from some of the companies!

International Violin (I think in Va. or Md.) has a great catalog with some nice kits and specialized tools.
