Very good!

This dvd really helped me learn the basics in violin. I would highly recommend it to adults, children and adolescents who want to know simple things and try playing and reading a little music. Not intimidating.

I like it!

get the first and second ABC's DVD!

these two Violin DVDs are amazing! I did so well with both DVDs that when I started taking private lessons after 3 months on my own, my teacher couldn't believe I never took private lessons before! If you want to learn from scratch, this is the way to go!!
