The difference between a violin and a fiddle? Simply the music you play while using the same wooden block with strings. If you play Mozart? Violin. Merle Haggard? Well, then, you certainly do have a fiddle! It may also be important to make the appropriate face...

You're doing the right thing. Playing the violin will take you further into facilitating and understanding the musical language with regard to other instruments, BETTER THAN ANY OTHER. Ear training comes along with the violin by proxy... no frets. I teach online all day every day. Hit me up on FB!

My parents insisted that I did practice, and for that I'm thankful. As a parent in today's age, it is perfectly acceptable (and well within your right as a parent) to insist upon the same from your own kids. As the study of music helps in EVERY AREA OF LIFE, including grades, there is no substitute for this. To me, it is as important as math and/or science.

I love these questions. The fact is I actually performed "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" WITH Charlie Daniels, TWICE. IN GEORGIA!! lol So... wow, I'll never forget that. I twinned his lead fiddle line, adding a harmony part on the spot, and he lit up like a Christmas tree. Photos of that are at the FB fan page...
