School orchestra music for violin lessons? Pizz: Pizz. is an abreviation for Pizzicato (not pizza;-) and means to pluck the string. A + sign means LEFT HAND Pizzicato. Andante: Andante literally means “walking tempo” and would be considered a moderately slow tempo.; Fortississimo: Fortississimo is written fff and means “very, very loud”
Viola: The viola is a little bit bigger then the violin. The viola string instrument is measured by inches no fractions like the violin. The viola is available in 14? – 17.5? but if you need a smaller viola, it is possible to put viola strings on a violin. The viola has four strings which are A, D, G and C.
Violin parts : Scroll – The violin scroll is mostly for decoration and is in the shape of a paper scroll. This part of the violin is unique to string instruments and is also found on the viola, cello, and bass. The scroll is usually hand carved and ads a beautiful touch to the violin. Grip – The violin bow grip is a leather or rubber wrapping around the stick of the bow at the frog end. The grip will help the violin student hold the bow properly. It is also accompanied by wire wrapping for decoration.

How to change atrings? Open the new string: Open the package with the new string. Some strings are sold straight and some are coiled in the package. All strings have different colors at each end and the package should tell you which color is which string. Different brands of strings have different colors so make sure to check the packaging before you change strings. For example, with Tomastik Dominant Violin Strings the E 3/string is Purple, A string is Blue, D string is Green and G string is yellow at the tailpiece end of the strings and at the peg end all the strings are purple.
