Would Like to Learn How to Play the Violin, Need Some Tips?

So I’m 19, and completely new to the world of classical music. Nevertheless, I’d like to learn to play the violin. What I need is: learn how to read notes, buy a violin, and learn to play it (of course).
But I’m afraid that I’m just too old and ignorant to learn to play.

1) Is it ok to buy a really cheap (low quality) violin just to learn how to play and then buy a better one once I’ve gotten better?
2) Is it a problem that I can’t read notes yet? Will they teach me at whatever school I go to? Or can I “homeschool” myself?

How Can I Tune My Violin?

hillannary asked:

I have a violin and I wanna tune it. The only way I ever learned to tune it was by using my tuner and then like plucking the strings. I can’t find my tuner and I was wondering if there was an online tuner that works the exact same way where all I have to do is listen and then pluck until they match. It has to be free and online no downloading, if downloading is the only option then go ahead and give that to me. Thanx!

Is there any point of me learning how to play the violin?

What Are the Best Websites for Learning How to Play the Violin?

Mizuki K asked:

I’ve taken a year of lessons already so posture, bowing, etc. isn’t a problem. Are there websites with demonstrations on how to play different notes, vibrato, and basic pieces?
I know having an instructor is best, but are there any websites for when lessons aren’t possible?
