Violin-a tool for the soul!

The violin is a delicate tool that can affect the deepest human senses. It is difficult to tell when it has arisen and where its roots lead. The modern design of the violin, as it is known and revered by millions of listeners, performers and masters around the world, has developed in the XVI century. It should be noted that the images of instruments, only remotely reminiscent of the violin, are referred to the beginning of our era! Now, the violin is one of the most popular instruments in academic and modern music.

The violin in a modern person, most often, is associated with anyone else, as with Niccolo Paganini. Paganini really was a kind of revolutionary violin of the performing techniques of that time. He played, by the way, and the guitar. It was she who helped him to achieve such successes and to gain fame as a virtuoso. Owning the techniques of playing the guitar, he transferred them to the violin, removing from the fragile body of the instrument impossible! Paganini said, “I am the King of the violin, and the guitar is my queen.” Centuries later, this name became household and descends from the mouth of people.
Such technical possibilities are not uncommon. A huge number of violinists around the world play the works of the maestro, write discs, and more recently-records, give concerts. Changed school game. The violin itself has changed. The digital revolution has not bypassed its side, giving reason for grandiose experiments and not less grandiose inventions.

Perhaps, of the main varieties of this tool is to highlight the usual, that is, acoustic violin and electric violin. The differences in the shape of the electro violin body do not carry any changes in the quality of the sound, and can change only for the sake of visual beauty. All “work”, as well as on an electric guitar, here depends on pickup and other devices, called among musicians “trimmings” which can give to sounds completely different colors and special effects.

Do not think that the end result of playing the violin, whether electric or acoustic, depends on external factors-lotions, amplifiers and other things. The violin is not so diverse in its forms and designs, but the scope of possibilities-technical, timbral, and high-altitude-is just amazing! and to master every facet of it, you will need long hours, days and years of training. With or without a tool. Not only is the fluency in the fingers inherent in the great creators, but also the depth of the soulful. Depth of thought. Depth of mind.
