Open Strings

     This page labels the strings on the violin. The picture is as if the violin were on your shoulder in playing position. I hand out this page at a student’s first lesson or before their first lesson if they have come to observe. The page can be played pizzicato (plucking) or arco (with the bow – after some bow hand instruction of course!)
