ff is dynamic indication in music. It stands for "fortissimo", which means "very loud".
In music, dynamics normally refers to the volume of a sound or note, but can also refer to every aspect of the execution of a given piece, either stylistic (staccato, legato etc.) or functional (velocity). The term is also applied to the written or printed musical notation used to indicate dynamics.

∙ 13y agoWe always called it Fortisi-isi-issimo but its real name is "fortississimo" and it basically means play or sing as loud as possible.
Basically musical terms are as such:
PP =Pianissimo (very soft)
P = Piano (soft)
MP = Mezzo Piano (half as softly) [mezzo = half in Italian]
MF = Mezzo Forte (half as loud)
F= Forte (loud)
FF = Fortissimo (Very loud)
So if you're doing the exact opposite, it would be called Pianississimo (very very soft) which you normally see in gentle chorale and church pieces. A good example of FFF would be in "O Fortunta" or something of that ilk where you want soaring notes and power (think Wagner).

What are dynamics in a violin?
Dynamics is how loudly the music is played. For violins and all instruments the most regularly seen dynamics (in order from softest to loudest) are: pianissimo (pp), piano (p), mezzo piano (mp), mezzo forte (mf), forte (f), and fortissimo (ff). If music has the dynamic of pp then you would play as quietly as you can. If music has the dynamic ff you would play that as loud as the violin can go.
