She’s always wanted to learn to play violin so I’m planning on getting her a violin with a cheap case and a tuner and a learning book and everything she would need to get started…but I’m having trouble finding sites that sell violins within my price range. I don’t know if guitar center would have anything good but I’ll try and look next time I’m there, other than that I’m going to have to buy it online. So does anybody have any websites I could check out or any other advice that would help me? Thanks if you have anything!

I got my first violin today. I am going to go to my first lesson in a week or two and I was just wondering if anybody knows a website to help me learn the notes and how to read music. I am stuck on especially that part. How to READ the music sheets. If anybody has a good website where it has all the details. PLEASE give it to me….

Hi! I had my first violin lesson in 2 years on Thursday, my next one is on Wedsday. My teacher gave me a piece to practice, and told me to practice the scales, especially the b flat scale. When practicing, do you go up one octave or two? Could someone elaborate on playing the scales, and how many are there? (Btw, I’ve heard about the Minor and Major scales, but I don’t know what they mean, so if someone could tell me, that would be super!)
