ABOUT THIS VIOLIN
The Master Ensemble violin is an outstanding choice orchestra and ensemble groups, and it is the best choice for violin soloists.  This violin plays exceptionally well, offering nice bright tones and the acoustics are impressive from low range through the high range. Excellent action on the fingerboard.  On my personal evaluation, this is one outstanding instrument, giving rich tonal qualities with depth and bravado.  It projects sound so well, that you might find a need to back off and lighten up on the bowing just a bit.  As compared with our First Chair model, the Master Ensemble model is for advanced violinists. Our Apprentice Ensemble and the First Chair violin are very well-suited to the intermediate and advanced violinists.  As a musician of many years, I would not hesitate to bring this instrument to any ensemble group.  I have played this Master Ensemble it my two ensemble groups and members of both groups were impressed and it was very well received by the other musicians.

Violins are included in more music pieces than one may realize. About 75% of all country songs have a violin (but call it a fiddle for country music and bluegrass). Personally, besides church music, I really enjoy picking bluegrass songs off the net and then play along to them with my own violin. It's fun, enjoyable, and if you have any stress in your life, pick up a violin and your stress will diminish.

If you think you are too old to learn violin, it wasn't until I was about age 44 that I started playing. Before that, I played trumpet, french horn, piano, and recorder. Conclusion: Anyone can play violin. The key is practice, practice, practice. Pick it up at least three or four times a week, or even better -- daily. Also, if you need music to practice with, I have picked up a ton of it from fiddlefork.com and can send you web links.
