Old violin with worn out label?

I just got a violin not too long ago and have been desperately seeking the maker of it. I found a label on it and well what do you know, it's worn out. It's located on the bridge and has a star (it looks like a jewish star) and the starts with an I then has a G or a C, then the last two letters are a G or a C and an N. Can someone help me maybe locate what the maker is of this? My step grandfather says it's 400 years old. (But he tends to make up stories..) Anyways, thanks!

I'm an intermediate violin player, what violin should I buy?

I have been playing the violin for a couple of years (off and on) but the violin I have been learning on isn't very good and the sound is worse. I want a violin that doesn't sound like a beginner's violin anymore. I was thinking of getting the Cecilio CVN-400 just because I'm on a tight budget. What do you recommend for tight wallets?


You just can't go wrong with a half-decent Strad.
There was a sunburst model at my local charity shop last week, but I couldn't afford the £5.50 either.


The one you're looking at is not really an intermediate violin, it's a beginner model and not likely to be any better than what you have now. Don't believe the fluff descriptions you see on dealer websites.

If you want to get something you'll enjoy playing you need to visit a string store and try some out. It's hard to get a cheap violin that doesn't sound like a cheap violin but you may luck out. A reputable string store will be able to guide you to a good value and will make sure that any violin it sells will be properly set up and ready to play when it leaves the store. Internet discounters often send you the pieces, including an unfitted bridge and pegs, and expect you to put the violin together yourself. Many who buy those violins find that they have to spend quite a bit to get the shell they were sent into playing condition.

So... Violin or Piano Lessons?

So I want help deciding whether I should take violin or piano lessons.
I've played oboe for almost 4 years, and I took piano before then - I think I could reteach myself if I had a good guide. I remember the notes and have music, I just have trouble with the bass clef and how to figure out where to place your fingers. So if anyone has a good refresher, I'd love it, a lot.
And violin, I think, is a beautiful instrument - I'd absolutely LOVE to play it. My mom said she'd sign me up for lessons.
But I can't choose between violin or piano lessons, since I haven't played piano in 5 years. Such a hard decision @-@
So what do you recommend and why?

Do I only need to learn piano to become a computer composer?

I really have a big passion for music. I find myself wanting to play every instrument I can especially drums, piano, guitar & violin.

Obviously I cannot master them all but I do find the reason I like all instruments are because of the combined sounds they produce together.

This has got me really interested in computer composing and thus my question..... For computer composing do I need to learn other instruments other than the piano? I find that music can be well structured on a piano. You can use the piano for every sound with a computer.

I currently have a digital piano, roland drum kit but I cannot see the logic in keeping the kit if I am going to be computer composing.

Is it better to master the piano as this will be the main tool for computer composing?

Thanks :)

Can I play an electric violin without a 9-volt battery?

I was thinking of buying an acoustic-electric violin. But I noticed that most electric violins has a 9-volt battery compartment. If I wanted to play it with an amplifier, would I still need a 9-volt battery for it to work?

Electric or electric-acoustic violin?

I was thinking of learning how to play a violin and play it with my band. Which is better, an electric violin or an electric acoustic violin? I wanted to play it with reverb and delay effect pedals so I'll be using the amp pretty much and if I would buy an electric-acoustic violin, I'll hear the natural sound of it. But since I still need to learn how to play a violin (and might take violin lessons), I don't think that an electric is a good choice.

Which type do you think is better for my situation?

Classical music meets Facebook in 'Portals'

How can classical music exist in the world of Facebook and Twitter? Can new forms of communication exist side by side with a virtuoso playing a centuries-old Stradivarius violin? Will that interaction enhance the experience or detract from it?

Those are some of the questions asked and, to some measure, answered by "Portals," a new multimedia piece that premiered in New York two weeks ago and has come to Nebraska for a preview and a pair of performances.

The preview is set for 5:30 p.m. Tuesday at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's Westbrook Music Building. The performances will take place Wednesday and Thursday at KANEKO in Omaha.
