Violin Lessons

The violin is a very popular instrument for children to learn. Its expressive tone suits a variety of musical styles and it is relatively inexpensive to start playing. We offer small group lessons which offer a fun, sociable and low-cost way to learn the violin. We also offer individual (1:1) and shared (2:1) lessons which may be better suited to some children and are happy to advise on this. As well as learning instrumental technique and how to read from a musical stave, children are also taught aural skills, simple improvisation and ensemble and performance skills. For pupils who wish to do so, there is the option to sit exams through ABRSM. Trial lessons available on request.

Our Saturday beginners violin group were working on rhythmic notation last weekend! They composed their own 4 beat rhythms using crotchets, paired quavers and crotchet rests. We will transfer our rhythms on to our violins next 🙂 🎻 🎶 Glasgow Children's Music School ... See MoreSee Less
