Violins: The Hardest Instrument to Learn 1 - Do you play an instrument? If you play more than one learning to play the second or third
instrument was most likely easier after you mastered your first instrument. No matter what
you play, however, learning an instrument was most likely difficult and required countless
hours of practicing. Many musicians may argue that their instrument is the most difficult to
learn, but the true honor of the most difficult instrument to learn belongs to the violin
2-The violin is one of the most beautiful sounding of all instruments. It is crucial to the
success of an orchestra. It has four strings and a small body, you usually craft it from
several types of woods, violinists play the instrument by pulling or pushing a long, straight
bow across it strings in a precise way. To make different notes and tones, they place their
fingers in the different places on top of the strings. Then, they press the strings down to the
violin's neck. Unlike many other stringed instruments, the violin requires the musicians to
be skilled with both their hands and their bows.
3 - Stringed instruments play with a bow are among the oldest and most popular
instruments in the world, people have enjoyed their sounds for centuries- the earliest were
played in Europe during the Middle Ages. However these instruments had little resemblance
to the modern violin. The violin, as we know it, has its roots in Cremona, Italy, in the 16th
century
4. The violin is one of many stringed instruments. However, it stands out among the rest.
What makes it stand out also makes it more difficult to learn how to play. For example,
compare the violin to the guitar, another stringed instrument. The guitar has many features
that make it easier to play. The next of a guitar is marked with bands called frets as guides
for where to place their fingers on the strings to make each distinctive note Violinist do not
have these guides to follow on their instrument, so they must leam where to place their
fingers and commit these positions to memory
5 Learning how to play the violin requires a lot of memorization, a finely tuned ear great
songs to play, and most of all, plenty of practice. It is not uncommon for professional
violinist to spend 5 or more hours a day practicing their instrument in the hands of a truly
gifted -and well trained -player, little can surpass the beauty of a violin's song
