How Can I Be a Maestro in Playing the Violin?

I’ve been learning to play the violin for 6 years, and passed all (< grade 6) practical ABRSM exams with distinction. Is it good enough, or what else should I do?

Is the Violin Easy for a Guitarist to Play?

Jeff asked:

I’ve been playing the guitar for about 6 years now and well, I think I’m pretty good, I’m mostly into neo-classical music like Yngwie Malmsteen so I’d like to learn to play the violin.

Is the violin pretty easy to learn and get used to really quick after playing the guitar for a while?

Also, what kind of violin should I get? I know I would have to spend a few hundred for a good violin, but I’m just looking for something cheap (under $100) to learn on first and see if I like it. Should I look in music stores for a cheap violin or should I just shop online?

What Is the Right Age to Start Violin Lessons?

Mike L asked:


My wife and & I are considering violin lessons for my 6 year old daughter. Is she too young to start playing? I began playing piano at 5 and hated it…6 years later, I was a mediocre piano player who still hated it.
