RECOMMENDED VIOLINS:
Fiddlerman violins are the only violins I currently recommend. You can choose the violin to suite you depending on your budget. Remember the cheaper you go (buying rubbish from Amazon for example), the worse the violin will be (garbage most likely) and the HARDER it will be to learn - which is why Fiddlerman violins are an excellent beginners choice:

Why is the e string so scratchy when I bow close to the frog
I am 10. I got inspired to play the violin and got one today. I hope watching these videos will help me learn. I love violin music!
Keep at it and you will be amazing one day! Overall, just enjoy yourself and celebrate your little wins.
It’s good your doing it early ^^ don’t quit
How’s it going
How's it going? :)
How is it going
I’ve always wanted to play the violin as a child but we couldn’t afford it, now I’m 29 and I’m finally learning. My coworkers the other days asked what’s the point? I told them the point of life is learning so why not? And why do they need to be assholes, when they could obviously tell I’m excited about it. Moral of the story don’t be joy stealers like my coworker, and it’s never too late to learn.
dam bro you need to chill
So wonderful to see so many 'mature' people taking on the challenge - very inspiring. I am 60 and have no musical experience whatsoever. Started violin 4 weeks ago - love it. Sound dreadful at the moment but I don't care. Patience and persistence will get me there. Thanks Alison.
I have been playing the guitar, and I also build/repair them. Violin is completely new to me. I just want to be able to play a sad song on it.
I'm close to 70 and have been playing the ukulele for 5 years. My first instrument. A friend recently gave me a hand me down violin and I'm really enjoying learning. I have never even touched one before, but have always loved the sound. Just being able to make a decent sound is exciting.
I've just started, too, age 67 and I am going to enjoy it, though also scratchy! Thank you, Alison, for teaching us.
Am 60yrs old to just started to play violin always loved violin keep going we will get farther good luck.
Did you get to where you wanted donna
"We're not sawing a piece of wood. We're trying to play the violin"
lmaooooo
power move lol
So far watched 4 videos, this one included! And Allison is by far one of the best tutor's I´ve found. She's clear, she's very pedagogic -doesn't hurry or sound "excited" but full of positive energy- and she takes the necessary time to explain the minor details and the key ones too!! ITHANKS A BUNCH!!
Thanks for the video ive just started to learn the violin at age 50 very helpfull
You Inspired me Sr! Its not too late after all :)
You are an inspiration sir.
I was in a dilemma whether to start learning so late. Now I know it's not late for me.
53 just got my first violin yesterday...
I started a few weeks ago at age 63. My wife says it sounds like cats fighting in the alley.
Randall Moon -lol!! She’s just jealous!!
Keep at it...... please!
Just beginning at 76. Your tutorials are great. I cannot imagine that taking lessons from a teacher could be any better.
I am 19..Medical student ...love violin alot...just started followin your tutorials....They are very helpful ..Thanks alot Miss Gorgeous.
me too
its hard to study and practice at the same time but Im really determined to learn how to play violin
Haha yes ...
omg im a med student too and im kind of skeptic on learning an instrumental since it’s also a commitment and im barely surviving university but i really wanna learn!
OOOOOOOHHHHHHH YOU LIKE HER!!!!!!!!!
Ciao
I am now 26 years old studying in Italy. Today I bought my first ever voilin and I am going to learn it. Thank God, I got her as a teacher
Because of you, I believe in myself, just don’t be stressed, stay calm and stay relaxed ok
I think I got it,❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love the way you’re teaching us, thank you so much❤
I am 47 and always love violin and I decided to learn! I am so excited to begin learning.
The violin is NOT difficult to learn. It is demanding and challenging and because of this being able to make music with a violin is EXTREMELY rewarding.
I started learning the violin at the age of 27 and had an amazing tutor I took my grade 1 exam and passed. Work then took over so stopped learning and playing (I was probably about grade 3). I watched Alison's original videos a few years ago and enjoyed them. I'm now 48 and these new youtube videos have inspired me to pick up the fiddle again and even though I'm back at square one I'm enjoying every minute. Thank you.
I'm 43, and have played guitar and mandolin since my teens. I bought a violin this week and have just started on these lessons. I'm finding them incredibly useful. Thanks for making them available.
update
Update?
I've wanted a violin for the longest time, and I finally got one!
Now I can learn, and this is part rather easy for me to do. I guess it's because as a kid I'd act like I'm playing a violin, and I'd observe others who play them.
Now the more difficult part is going to be actually playing the violin, can't wait to learn!!
I've played the violin intermittently since I was 12 but I had to stop practicing too often because of hectic schedule at med school. I'm 22 now and still got 2 years to graduate. I've tried joining a local orchestra so I'll be forced to practice but that proved to be a lot of commitment. Only yesterday I discovered your channel and books and I'm practicing again thanks to you. I was shocked to see that my tutors missed to teach me some interesting trivia about the violin which you mentioned in the couple first lessons. I have to admit that I hated the violin at first because of my tutors and didn't learn that I actually love playing it until I quit lessons and started learning on my own.
I am 58 and never picked up a violin...Thank you for guiding me with tuning my violin, rosining up my bow, how to hold both the violin and the bow. The finger chart will be very helpful! Looking forward to lesson 4!! Christine
Wow. Just found these video tutorials! Thank you for these! I'm recently suffering from depression (and surprise, none of my friends definitely know about it), and so I was looking for something that may help me overcome this trial and I've decided to finally learn playing a violin. I've always been a fan of violin music and now it's finally the time to actually learn doing it and in the sideline improve what I feel about myself so thank you very much. Your tutorials will be of great help 😁
Hey! These lessons are wonderful
I'm 18 and your video tutorials have really helped..I can now hold the bow correctly
I played the violin for 9 years then I stopped when I was 13. I'm 16 now and I bought a violin because I wanted to get back into it, I was really rusty at playing but I've gotten better, and now I realize in the 9 years of playing I was never taught too many techniques, like vibrato and 2, 3d and 4th position and so on. So I'm watching this series to hopefully learn those things. So far I'm just watching these early videos cause I know all of this, but I'm still watching them just to make sure I don't miss anything. Thanks
I haven't played since I was 12 (played for 7 years). I realized truly missing the joy a playing music in my life. Thank you so much for these videos.
Thanks for making this series!!
Oh man, it's so funny going from playing the guitar for 11 years to picking up the violin and making an avant garde noise collage. Keeps you humble I suppose.
I am in th exact same situation right now. And the neighborhood cats think I am one of them.
Just FYI I've checked a lot of websites and channels but this is the best one so far THANK YOU for the effort
Wow, thanks!
You are a really good teacher! I haven’t even bought my violin yet and I got caught up watching your lessons already!😂 I’m still trying to figure out which violin I want 🤣
I'm doing the same thing now Lol
Me too! Haven't borrowed or bought a violin yet. I'm 63.
I am 13 i just got a violin i know nothing about it i got inspired to play violin by a cover of senorita and pirates of Caribbean on TH-cam and an anime too i cannot go to lessons because exams are near i am learning violin in my free time you also inspired me soo much i first saw your older videos of how to play violin and i liked it you are easy to understand and you explain things so people like me who know nothing about music can understand thank you so much i hope i can learn playing violin from your videos :)
I'm 35 and I held the violin in my hands for the first time today. Been watching your lessons. I'll go through the entire playlist before I start again from lesson 1. This is helpful.
"Stop the elevator at the G String floor." That's the greatest piece of musical education...ever.
Thank you so much violin master, I bought a violin with my money, and my parents won't ever pay for a violin teacher, so I have only you and you are so dedicated to teach us...I love you😭😭
I have the same violin as you which was passed down through generations, made of ebony. It looks majestic and I just cant wait to play it! Thank you for the amazing videos!
Dear Alison, thank you so much for this clear video. It has helped me greatly to see where my mistake was when trying to change from one chord to the other with the bow.
I am ten and I am in grade 5 violin but I still listen to u because practice makes perfert
24 your video is encouraging to me who started late. Thank you so much
I'm 16 and I found it really helpful. Thanks for uploading such an amazing video.
I'm from Sudan, and these videos helped me understand the theory about violin. Thanks
Thank you so much for uploading these videos! I feel like you are here in my room, telling me personally what I need to do. I can’t afford lessons but I have wanted to learn how to play the violin since I was a child. This is a completely selfless thing you are doing and I appreciate it so much! Thank you for your generosity!!
Just got my first one at 35 and going to be using these to learn how. Thanks for these!
I just came to say I love you😫♥️. I just got a violin and you are the only one I am able to get😅 I haven’t found a tutor yet. I will stop on lesson 4 till I get it.
Thank you for the tutorial. Playing the violin is one of my dream and I think it will come true with your support :) thanks again
Playing the violin is one of my dream..so know l try to do it. Thanks miss allison for all this tutorials..you are a great teacher.❤️
So gratifying to see my 7 yr granddaughter follow your techniques in lesson 4. It’s so great that we can share this together. She went home and showed her parents and made a video lol. Thank you Allison! The journey begins?
Im 14 and i‘ll Start the violin today. Tranks for all your advices

This woman is amazing!
I'm very new but I think she's going to be helpful 😊
Thank you for these videos! I've just ordered a violin today and was looking for any sort of resources online when I found your videos! My old friend is an orchestra teacher in my hometown. I'm visiting her in couple of months. Im glad I found these videos so I can practice some basics before I see her!

Alison is the best forget the rest =p, just wanted to say thank you so much for helping all of us with our passion! ps your absolutely goures not to take away from how much of a wonderful teacher you are!
I'm 14, just got a violin and Jesus Christ this lady saved my life 🥲
And how is today your playing?
I am 14 and I'm hoping to develop my skills on the violin! You have better tutorials than anyone here on TH-cam.
Thank you for your lessons!
Of all the video tutorials I've seen, your approach is the most effective for me. They way you teach your lessons is amazing -simple words, practical application, and not so much on theoretical part. I love how you do it bit by bit so as not to overwhelm your learners, especially for beginners like me ☺
Your videos are very helpful. Thank you!
Just starting today at 47! Can't wait to get all your materials. Doesn't hurt that you're so easy on the eyes too! Cheers.
Hello miss Alison for all your hard work making those amazing videos .i am 12 and I love the violin 🎻 thanks 🙏 to you .you are an Amazing tutor and I am learning the violin faster than I did at the orchestra btw I am from Egypt 🇪🇬 Love ❤️ u
i learned the violin a while ago in like 5th grade and since then i have completely forgot how to play 😅 since i have nothing to do i thought i would pick it up again! these videos are very helpful, thank you! ☺️
I started my violin classes just this week and I practice with your videos. Really very helpful! Thanks for the effort on these videos
I Got a violin for Christmas and I think they're great!

I love this instrument and planing to learn it in future so thank you for your effort and time
Getting my first violin on Thursday. So glad I have these to watch. You're very helpful
same just got mine yesterday
I think you should make FAQ every week or something. It would be awesome.
Excellent teacher!!.. definitely will download the book after i finish with this 10 videos. 👍
wanted to learn violin by myself without paying any lesson, yours are so helpful, incredible
I've always wanted to study music and be part of an orchestra, but is was only a few weeks ago that I was able to start learning the violin, I'm 16, so it's going to be hard to fulfill my dream, but I'll try.
Are you playing the strings on the side of your bow, or with the bow flat? It looks like you're playing from the side of the bow hairs. I'm 67 and just started playing. I love the violin, and I'm glad I found you to teach me. You are such a great instructor. Thank you!
Beauty with Brains! Thanks for teaching 🙏🙏🙏
Such a beautiful sound, I'm glad you explained.
Your videos are so so helpful!! Thank you!
Thankyou Alison Love the way you teach! ;)
Great video, thank you so much! Very helpful and insightful!
I just got to this lesson, I'm totally new, you are fantastic! I can now practice a lot of arm-position +bowing straight (I suck at it yet jajaja) with these 6 songs, its amazingly hard and fun to learn. thank you very much! =D
4:47-4:49 perfect timing with your arm and words
Whenever she says "violin tutor" it sounds like "violin cheeta" to me.
even to the subtitle generator
More like "violin tewtuah" lol
so that's what she says !
Thanks I m from India and I love ur videos because I want to learn voilin....by see ur video pls. Help me thanks
Awesome tips, love the elevator analogies. You're a very thorough teacher, love your explanations, thanks
Thank u for cheering up coved!!
Hello Prof. Alison, i am newly praticing playing violin... Here watching your videos and trying to learn more tips from your vlog.
Hello Alison, i love your explanation ... they are really granular.... i am loving it... i play guitar, piano, drums and a composer... so i really know how well you are nailing it for beginners...
I have covered only till 4th part of this series... do you have a video on Tuning the violin ... the pegs are not staying on a note properly.. i tune it to E and it drops its tuning no matter how tight i set it to.. even i ended up breaking the string...
I was planning to take violin course one to one learning, but your videos are really helpful and amazing!!! Thank you so much
You are the best for helping us learn. I played the violin when I was little in school but I was from a low income family and couldn't afford lessons. BUT it has always been a passion and something Ive wanted to learn, because of course I forgot how to play lol. It's funny because I know a girl who is your legit twin (no joke). I grew up with her and I can barely tell you two apart. It's freaky.
Julie Rivera totally understand! !!
I've just ordered a Cecelio to get started...late start... I'm 72 :-)
Alison, I've looked at many of your videos and have a bowing question... maybe I missed it elsewhere, but this is a bowing lesson so I thought that I'd ask it here.
Does the hair run flat on the strings, or is it at an angle?
Don
Play flat for now as you will get thr best tone. I play tilted, but i have been playing for over 30 years and i can manipulate the bow. If you try to tilt as a beginner, you will find the bow going all over the place.
OK thank you :-)
BCCanuck1945 wow you are amazing! :)
It's never too late for anything bro
Keep going :)
I was just about to comment that I might be the oldest at 68, but I see you beat me!
Hello, I'm so grateful to have found you, I'm just getting started, and your videos are incredibly helpful.
- play the bow in between of the bridge and finger board (more to the fingerboard but not on it)
- bow straight
- keep violin straight
-isolate strings when playing PRACTICE IT
I start getting interested on violin when an 11 year old girl played a violin on a sunday service in our church! I want to learn playing violin but first let me research the basics and waht vioin to get as starter! if anyone see my comment please recommend a good quality violin to get, maybe not too expensive but something durable and long lasting as starter! thank you
I love your tutorials!
Omg you help me so much ❤💕 thanks God you make this videos and help violins student
I don't understand why you say you are a cheater (that's what I hear, I turned subtitles on and that's what youtube hears too!) 🤣. Aaaanyway, I've watched some of your videos with my daughter that is learning to play violin and she really liked them. Now I got interested in learning and I'm going to use your lessons, thanks!
Im not a cheater! My channel is called: The Online Piano & Violin Tutor.
@@TheOnlineViolinTutor I hope you understood the joke was about how you pronounce the word "Teacher". I swear I hear "cheater", and If I turn on youtube's automated subtitles it does say cheater! so youtube's voice recognition also hears that.
Thank you for teaching the basics so well. .
So 4 videos down, I tried a violin today, will buy it asap, Ty Alison
Thank you so much for the lessons! I really appreciate the opportunity to learn from them!
I've been learning to play the violin for a few weeks now, and by now I can bow with very little scratch, and mostly I understand what I'm doing wrong when I hear a scratch.
However, sometimes I feel like my right arm begins to bow with a bit more weight (probably if I relax it too much, or simply getting tired), and when that happens, a nasty scratch appears and also the pitch of the played string goes down quite a bit... And so I figured you haven't really mentioned how much weight should we bow with, in other words, how strongly should we bow?
Could you please comment whether you think it is normal (that bowing with too much weight sounds so badly) or is it rather a sign of a poor quality violin?
Thank you so much once again!!!
Very difficult to answer as I would need to see whats happening. By the sounds of it, you are just getting fatigued and then pressing too hard. Practise in short bursts as that might help. You will always know if you are pressing too hard as it will feel wrong and you will get no sound/tone/pitch, but only proper scratch.
I think so too. In any case, if I stop pressing too hard and just bow as I normally would, then the sound gets back to normal :)
Thank you for your response!
And thank you for everything you do! :)
Thank you Alison , much appreciated
Thank you Allison very helpful , just a bit of trouble twisting my left wrist for 'g' string lower notes G#, A.--must try harder.
YOU ARE A LEGEND! LOVED ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS
This was incredibly helpful. Thank you so so so much!
You are very lovely tutor. Thanks much. So much love ♥️
Thanks you ma, I wish to buy my violin 🎻 very soon
Just came across these videos, they look good. Sorry if you covered this somewhere else, but what is the "right" amount of tension on the bow hair?
I'm very happy with the violin and I decided to continue learning. The instrument is very rewarding to learn with respect to how difficult it is. This is my first week and I planned to purchase a better violin at a music store. 😊 😊
I try so hard to keep the bow straight right now. Sometimes it goes all over the place but I know with practice I will get there. I also need to master the violin hold. Hehe. And I still need to find those elevator floors. But I'll get there.
I have a problem though Alison, whenever I bow, the bow is actually shaking especially when I'm bowing near the tip. Shaking in a sense that the bow is vibrating and the stick hits the hair occasionally. I was wondering, how do i keep the bow steady and straight? As well as is the vibrating normal or something else I need to do? Thanks so much!
Bow shaking usually goes away after a few weeks as your consistency when bowing improves.
@@TheOnlineViolinTutor oh okay! That's wonderful news. Thank you. 😊 😊
@@TheOnlineViolinTutor I'm having the same thing. Bow is bouncing a bit. Thank you for your help.
hi Alison first finger about G, D, A, strings in the previous video you have said something b flat i dont understand where should be play it on violin.
3rd or 4th finger: C#/Db , G# A/b , D# E/B , Bb meaning of this about where should be play it the ones that have vertical lines Db , Ab and so on.
Thank you alison you look so bright on your videos and books not words. really keen on to play like you a day :)
Dont worry about it - concentrate on the notes you have to learn in these first 10 lessons as all this and more is properly and thoroughly covered in the next set of lessons 11-20.
When bowing, should the bow move up first or down, or does it vary and does it matter? Do I start in the middle of the bow or toward the ends? It looks like you're starting about mid bow in this lesson. Also, how far should the bow travel on each note note in 4/4 before I switch to up or down? Is it a time thing rather than a distance? Sorry for so many questions. I want to start out right so I don't have correct bad habits later on. I'm 68. My first big goal is to be able to play for my family on my 70th and not have them run away. Thank you so much for your videos! I didn't think I would be able to make a non-cringe worthy sound so soon, but with your help, I am. Two weeks in and my dog doesn't hide any more.
