Viols were used in the 15th through 17th centuries. They are of the same family as the violin but different in that they have five or six strings. Modern violins (and violas, cellos, and basses) have four strings. The earliest made surviving four-string violin is one of a set of 24 made for King Charles IX of France in the 1560's.
The first violin made was by Andrea Amati in 1555. There are a few violins of his from that year that would be the actual first violin. A search of "violin Amati 1555" would give you pictures of these instruments.Interestingly, the first instrument in the violin family was not the violin. It was the viola!
The oldest surviving violin was built in 1564 by Andrea Amati, in Cremona.

The first violin was made by Andrea Amati , although many people contributed. This happened in Italy. The first violin was first used in the 16th Century but it was firstly mentioned in a word document in 1523.
I think that the violin are used in so many cultures because a lot of people used to play the violin. Also a long time ago they used to make the violin out of wood and used in orchestras and choirs.

The violin was developed in the 1600s in Italy, and was first publicly used at a performance of a Monteverdi concerto in 1649. Hope this helps!

The violin is used to make music to people's ear's.
The group that played it over the internet used hand vibrato, and used first, third, and fifth position on the violin. Those are the techniques you must learn.

The first violin and second violin are the same instruments. In an ensemble (orchestra, symphony, ect.) the first violin plays the higher part and the melody, while the second violin plays the lower part or the harmony. There is sometimes also a third violin, which plays the lower part along with the second violin, and this can go on and on. (4th, 5th, 6th) One common misconception is that the first violin plays the harder part, but this is not always true. The violins playing the harmony might have a harder time supporting the first violins.
Probably the first violin section or the first violin in an ensemble. Different pieces of music require different numbers of violin parts, all playing different notes.
