| | Violin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The earliest references to jazz performance using the violin as a solo instrument are documented during the first decades of the 20th century. | | | A person who plays violin is called a violinist or fiddler, and a person who makes or repairs stringed instruments is a luthier. | | | Since the Baroque era the violin has been one of the most important of all instruments in classical music, for several reasons. |

| | The Violinist' |
| | The violinist is being asked to produce a greater and more varied range of dynamics than ever before - the modern concert hall, heavier bows and strings, the demands of composers pose formidable problems for modern violin techniques. | | | In the hands of the violin teacher it becomes a method by which the troubles of his pupils can be observed accurately, analyzed and remedied. | | | Obviously, the experience of increasing efficiency and economy of effort in the working of the mind-body complex gives the violinist a sound basis for self-observation, whereby he can sort out the relative efficiency of the various aspects of his violin technique. |

| | When London, Ont.-born violinist Lara St. John released her debut disc in 1996, classical music purists raised their eyebrows at the 24-year-old's semi-dressed pose on the album cover. | | | The reason for this misplaced attention to her gowns and CD covers (which are provocative only from the puritanical standpoint of classical music traditionalists) is that St. John possesses a physically-commanding stage presence. | | | Violinist Lara St. John and the orchestra made an amazingly jagged, spasmodic arrangement of Gershwin's I Got Rhythm sound like one long, witty musical joke. |
