Taught myself guitar, bass, piano and some drums and just got myself a violin last night, buzzing to learn
I started with drums, guitar, bass, ukelele, and now I'm working on keyboard and my violin comes in today! I want to learn EVERY instrument I can before I die, haha.
Wow
I just turned 54 and have wanted to play the violin since I was 6. I finally got my first violin and eager to play. Your video is very clear and precise. Thank you for being so helpful! I’m looking forward to watching many more videos by you!
Me too! I'm 54 and have always wanted to play. It's never too late!
Me too
got

I'm SO STOKED....i wanted violin
When i was 8....im 59 it's my bday 🎂 51 years later WOW
I'm 52 and just got my first violin yesterday too. Great lesson.
I played the violin in elementary school, will forever be mad at my child self for dropping it in middle school. Totally hoping to get back into it soon!
Same here. Had to play at a school Christmas program and promised if they made me do it, I'd never pick it up again. Well, now I'm 67 and wish I never quit.
I'm a clawhammer banjo player who is finally taking the leap to fiddle. I won't name names, but this was far clearer and more useful than a beginner lesson I watched by another well-known old-time player. Thank you!
Hello George, thank you a great first lesson, i am 58 years old, i started learning guitar when i was 7 years old, not a master by any means, but im excited to find your lessons, I usually just try to learn most things by myself but its very nice to be shown properly.
I really like how your instructions are clear, it's not too slow, and you add a bit about your personal life like it's a personal lesson, lost of love teach
I love how he’s Australian and he doesn’t tell people to remember the strings g.d.a.e. As g’day lol
Ha! Yes I wish I’d caught on to that one before making this vid. I’m from New Zealand though 😊
That’s actually how I remember it. 😂
I love how someone who knows what he's talking about comes to criticize another on a training video... 🤣🤣🤣
@@adrianyee6575 what are you talking about
Actually he is from NZ.
The nuances you give and reasoning behind the practice is a gold mine of knowledge.
I was a very amateur guitar player growing up, but the violin has always been my favorite instrument. Your videos are so helpful. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
I played classical violin for 5 years and put it down for about three. The CALLOUSES oh my goodness I miss them so much right now
This is amazing my child gas been playing for 2 weeks and she is already getting much better ♡
I don't even have a violin yet and still watched the entire video 😅
Same😂
Same here 😂😂
Same 🎉
I played cello as a kid and now have an electric violin. This video makes me a lot more confident to play this instrument, thanks George!
I have been fortunate enough to have seen George in concert (with an Australian bluegrass band called "The company") and to have been in a jam session with them after the show. Whilst I play other instruments, violin is completely new to me. I will be most happy to learn from George's online lessons.
Was going try banjo but grandfather threw a fiddle at me and smiled. So with your help hopefully I’ll give him more to smile about. Doesn’t seem as intimidating as I thought. To start anyways. Thank you for your videos.
thank you for the lesson! I just turned 37 years old today, I've wanted to learn to play violin since I was a kid, but for different reasons, I learned guitar instead, my wife gave me my very first violin today and your lesson was great, thank you!
Such clear and easy explanations. Thank you George
I have a daughter with Downs she has shown interest in the violin. Her uncle had an old kids beginner violin that he gave us. We had the bow rehaired and got it back today. We have no idea how to handle the violin. I decided to subscribe before you were done with how to hold the bow. If you spend this much time explaining this one thing, I can see you as a capable teacher.
I will be learning violin along with my daughter.
Man... Some simple things just perfectly explained here that just kept eluding my grasp. This has helped me more than anything else so far! Wish I had found it sooner!
Thanks, glad it’s helpful!
@George Jackson I've been a guitarist for 30 years, and the mechanics are so very different. I really have to work on muscle groups I can usually ignore with guitar, and change my grip on the bow naturally (instead of knuckle-dragging the heel like a pick in a muted grip) The wiper stretch alone was like unlocking a new skill! Thanks much!
@@mikec6840 You ain't wrong there, Mike. Am also a guitarist, on rythm. As I mentioned in a comment above...I hope the positions on my mandolin help me somewhat despite holding the violin off my neck...should be fun.
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much George you're awesome!
Thank you for the lesson! This is perfect for me; i just got a violin today!
It helped
I'm following your lessons, you made easy for me to understand, have my daughters fiddle and want to learn! Wish me luck filling you. Thank you
Ronny
Tganknyou for your video. It was perfect! I played the violin as a young boy and have always wanted to master it. I have two violins now and with +God's help I am going to accomplish this. Thank you
Great video! Got a violin a few months ago but had difficulties setting it up, I finally got it right. Looking forward to following the rest of your vids 👍
Great video, just good for a complete newby like me. Please do correct me if I'm wrong, but two things I learned before watching this video which I think are worth mentioning: 1) Remember to use rosin or else the bow won´t make a sound :) If the rosin is shinny, use some sand paper to break it before using, it should release powder as you apply it to the bow. 2) Bow pressure on the strings should be minimal, or else sound will be horrible
very good thank you. as a person who plays other string instruments wanting to add the fiddle this what I needed. all the best to you. cheers
Thanks! Great lesson!
Loved the soulful violin in all those country songs so much a few days ago I saw a used violin for sale, bought it. Clearly all those musicians have even more talent than I thought. I've adopted a new hobby 😄🤠
Fantastic, thank you George. David
Have never been an instrument guy by any means, but your video is making it seem much less daunting than I expected! Always have wanted to learn and this is my in. Thanks from Aus!
You are awesome one of best teacher ever I saw…….. thank you so much
This was super helpful! I just started yesterday on the violin, but I didn’t do anything, so I know so much more now! I used to hold the bow on the 2 dots on the end of the bow so that was also very helpful! Thank you!
Thank you so much, I'm a beginner and you have taught me more that anyone I've tried to learn from in person. Looking forward for more.
Got my violin today!!! Thank you so much for this video, I’ve already learned so much 🥹🥹🥰🥰
That's awesome! I'm hoping to get a violin once I've saved enough money. How's learning been going, now that it's been a month for you?
Awesome! Liked it, successfully completed.
Great teacher
Very good for beginners, thanks for the content
Excellent instructor and methods presentation.
Awesome George...! I don't even have a violin as of now but I'm already hooked..!! Thank you so much.🎻

glad you made a louder version of this fiddle lesson. I notice you are using the classical style of holding the fiddle
Thanks!
Thank you 😊
Very helpful
I am well versed in music however i am new to string and bow. It was exciting to watch this video. I am already sounding and looking good.
Thank you very much for that! ❤
BIG LOVE
I haven’t got my fiddle yet but im beginning to learn to prove to my parents im worthy enough of it at least and the way you explain it is so easy to understand! I subscribed and i will try to listen to all your videos!! ❤
Awesome George :D
tysm im learning well
Very nice video.
Thank you! ❤
I have had my fiddle for 6 months and have made absolutely no progress. This series HELPS!!!
It was a good lesson. The violin I used was in tune, thank goodness
Subscribed, thank you
wow thank you so much! this is exactly what I was looking for
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wish me luck. I went to the music store and just bought a fiddle on a whim today. I used to play the piano as a kid and I remember the notes, but have no clue on a string instrument. Glad I found your videos! I’m going to attempt to let you teach me 😆
Good luck! Hope these vids help 😊
Thank you, this was my first ever lesson :)
Fantastic! Hope it started you off good.
Thank u ❤
Love you sm
I have zero knowledge about instruments let alone the violin. But this video made it so easy to learn on my little sister’s violin 😂 thnx so much I look forward to your other vids
Powerfull...👍
I gave up in Grammer school after 2 years because my neck hurt so much, I was just told to get used to it. Shoulder rests! what a revelation! I am upset. I wish someone had gotten one for me
This is so cool George. Thank you. 🙂🎻
You have great acoustics in that room. I play a mandy, and hoping those positions will help me given the tuning is the same.
Hi George, I saw you and your group at Cpac in Green Valley , AZ, it was a very good concert you guys put on. I just got a fiddle at a garage sale, I’m very excited to learn and have started your tutorial . My name is John Jackson, if you remember I talked with you at intermission asking you if by chance we were cousins.
Well, I managed to break a string. Oops. However, I appreciate your thorough explanation. I found myself asking clarifying questions in my head, and lo and behold, you managed to answer them as if we were having a conversation face to face. Wonderful job anticipating a newbies mistakes. I watched the bow string while doing upward and downward strokes and that seemed to improve my ability to make a clean note. Is this improper? Where shall we look when learning?
Thank you so much for this!!! Does anyone have recommendations for a good beginner violin to purchase?
when i first learned the strings I found "G'Dae", kind of like how an Australian would say it and here I am getting lessons from an Australian
Hopefully I'll get around to starting to learn to play the Violin, until then I'll be alright with the piano and the electric guitar, I've got a long way to go on both, especially on the guitar. Plus having no frets on the violin is very frightening. The final goal is Vivaldi's "Winter" and "Jhin's Login Theme" from League of Legends, the main theme for Jhin, The Virtuoso.
Beautiful, thank you so much
just got done watching episode 1, but how do i know How much resin you apply to the strings? And how do you see where to.put your fingers if your head is facing forward? Just bought a Cecilio electric violin off amazon, and am excited to learn how to play music on it!
How much should I invest in my first violin? I am an absolute beginner. Thanks for the video :) I am one step closer to finally starting to learn the instrument.
Wow simply amazing teaching gradually going to get everything maybe perfect.💐🤗🙏🤷👍💯🧠☝️😴tnku.dear sir.4!🤷👍💯 explanation.see u next class.👍
What violin should I get?
@georgejacksonmusic what is you violin size?
Would you consider posting a tutorial on how to play Fur Elise ? By Beethoven?
👍
thank you subscribe
im happy
Is it okay to turn it it a lot until there's a gap of is there a chance it will like, break?
How hard is it to learn Vivaldi summer?
Why when I play it, when I try playing full bow with the same technique, it isn't making a sound despite having rosin, Is my bow bad or am I doing something wrong..? what could be the possible reasons?
Hello George. I was wondering if you could make a recommendation for my first violin. I’m an adult beginner. I don’t have a lot of music shops in my area that specialize in violins, and some don’t sell them at all. I’m reluctant to order anything from Amazon as I’ve heard a lot of horror stories. I can spend up to about $1000.00 maybe $1200.00 at a stretch. Any thoughts on what might be some good choices? Do I need to spend this much as a a beginner? Any advice you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
This is a tough question. First of all you should be able to find a pretty good first violin for your price point, maybe try contacting a shop that specializes in violins and talk to them. A good example would be “the violin shop” in Nashville, maybe you can arrange to buy one of their beginner models from afar. Good luck!
Tower Strings also has quite a decent violin with accoutrements.
Good tutorial but volume was too low. Please consider having high volume while uploading/recording videos. Thanks
What's fhe song called in the intro?
According to the android app "tuner & metronome" your A and E strings were tuned about 6 cents too high.
I'm at Zerooo...! I feel the bow so heavy for my hand. The biggest problem is that the chinrest hurts my collarbone 😢. Then I have to switch tasks between hands: right hand holds and left hand fiddles😂. Sounds crazy but it's much better 🤣🤣
Are u the guy on the thumbnail?? That dude oozes outlaw n cool
Your my hero
Cuz ....i play bass guitar !!!
This is TOTALLY new TO ME
IM TRUCKERS WIFE ...

I'm 6strings 😊k.
Thank You
