The most important aspect of holding a violin correctly is comfort. Be sure to find the chin-rest and shoulder pad that suits you. We are all built differently and must therefor find the equipment suited to ourselves. Try to balance your violin on your shoulder as much as possible to avoid having to grip it too hard with your chin. Having to grip your instrument the wrong way will cause tension and can create long-term complications and is very hard to change after years of hard work and practice. Take the time in the beginning to find the ideal position and equipment.

Are you aware that you can post a video or audio file in the party room that does not show you playing, if you are not after a badge. We are after participation, so if you want to add to a party and not show yourself, feel free. I added an mp3 audio file to Stringy's Spring Plant Party. After all, it is a party room, be creative if you wish, have fun! You must be the one playing, though.Mouse
