Violin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It’s thought the first violin was constructed around 1555 by Andrea Amati, although no one is sure of the exact year. Originally having only 3 strings, the violin has evolved over the years, giving us the modern day violin. The violin is the smallest and highest-pitched of the string instrument family. Violins are important instruments in a wide variety of musical genres – they are most prominent in the Western classical tradition and in many varieties of folk music.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When choosing to study the violin, it is vital that the correct technique be learnt from the onset. That is why it is so important to study this instrument with a seasoned violinist. At the NW Musikon, our violin students are trained by our own virtuoso, Wim Wybenga, a violin specialist with more than 30 years experience in playing. Thus you can rest assured that your child will receive only the best quality education.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
