Abstract

This article describes a different approach for learning a musical instrument using an unorthododox methodology in which music notes are not involved. My violin teaching method take the note – reading difficultuies out of the initial learning approaches. Therefore, the learner focuses more onto the physicial parts of the instrument at first such as holding, finger positioning, bow placing etc. Consequently, I have analyzed and researched on younger learners such as 3 to 5 years of age and discussed the benefits of helping the student at an early stage of learning.
