Here's a quick video showing the essential skills for beginner violinist. I'll show you how to:

Hold the violin and bow
Pluck rhythms on the strings
Bow the strings
Use lefthand fingers
Play a simple song

All in one minute ⏱.

This is part of "How To Play Violin An Illustrated Guide" which I just published: https://fiddlehed.co/PlayViolin

This free guide goes much further, delving into getting an instrument, setting it up, stepbystep microlessons on technique, mindset and more.

Whether you're an absolute beginner or advanced player, I encourage you to take a look. Maybe there's something you missed along the way. Or something that was never totally clear.

Thanks for watching

Best to you on your fiddle journey
