Violin
- From the Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia that anyone can change
The violin is a string instrument that is played with a bow. The violin does have four strings which are tuned to the notes G, D, A, and E. The player does hold the violin between the left collar bone (near the shoulder) and the chin.
Different notes are made by fingering with the left hand while bowing with the right. It does not have any frets or other markers, so players must learn the exact place to put the fingers of the left hand by memory alone.
The violin is the smallest and highest pitched instrument in the string family.
The other instruments in the family are: viola, cello and double bass. A person who does play the violin is called a violinist. A person who does make or repair a violin is called a luthier.
No other instrument has played such an important part in European music as the violin. The violin is about four hundred years old. When the modern orchestra did start in the seventeenth century the violin was fully developed and it did become the most important orchestral instrument. Nearly every composer did write for the violin. It is used as a solo instrument, in chamber music, in orchestral music and in jazz as well as in folk music.
The violin is sometimes called by its nickname: the “fiddle”. Someone who does play it is a “fiddler”. There is even a verb: “to fiddle”, meaning “to play the fiddle”. Properly the word fiddle is used when talking about folk music.
