Fiddle violin tunes with Miss Laura, the violin teacher? Accent: An accent in sheet music looks like this: > or this: v and means to emphasized a note with a little force. An accented note will have a “consonant” sound at the beginning of it “k” or “t” Allegretto: Allegretto is moderately fast. An Allegretto tempo would be slower than allegro, but faster than andante.; Pianissimo: Pianissimo is written pp and means very soft.
Cello: The cello is much larger then the violin or viola. It is played sitting down but is still a bowed string instrument. The strings on the cello are A, D, G and C but sound one octave lower then the Viola. Cellos are available is 1/10 – 4/4 sizes.
Violin parts : Scroll – The violin scroll is mostly for decoration and is in the shape of a paper scroll. This part of the violin is unique to string instruments and is also found on the viola, cello, and bass. The scroll is usually hand carved and ads a beautiful touch to the violin. Grip – The violin bow grip is a leather or rubber wrapping around the stick of the bow at the frog end. The grip will help the violin student hold the bow properly. It is also accompanied by wire wrapping for decoration.
Miss Laura’s lesson plans include customized practice charts and lesson notes. First, you will receive emailed PDF or spreadsheet practice charts to help keep track of practice. Also, you will receive e-mailed notes about the lesson and practice assignments. Most important, make it a goal to practice at least 5 times per week for the length of your online lesson (25 or 55 min.)
I don’t just teach online violin lessons, I go beyond with lesson plans that include so much more. I provide online lesson portals, audio practice aids and audio practice submissions with feedback too. These are on top of the regular online violin lesson. That means, the lesson isn’t over after the online zoom lesson. Each lesson plan encourages the most progress per week. This learning environment is the most effective with teacher support that continues all week. See extra information on Online Violin Lessons.
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.
