The violin is the smallest of the string family of instruments and therefore plays the highest notes.

Violins come in different sizes so even the smallest of players can comfortably and easily hold and play it.

Each child is "sized" or measured to find just the right size instrument for his/her/ stature.

Violin sizes are generally referred to as 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and 4/4.

Here is a checklist of typical items you will need to get ready to play! Each item already checked is included - at no charge - with your rental or purchase from Schmidt's Music. You may also want to check with your music teacher for any additional items he or she suggests:

rosin remover kit

a shoulder rest

polish and polishing cloth
