The string order is not messed up. They are placed within a perfect fifth or each other, making the violin easier to play. The order of the strings is: G, D, A, and E. G+4=D, D+4=A, and A+4=E. If the strings were placed like A, B, C, D, the violin would be impossibly hard to figure out.

When a violin string of a certain length is set in vibration it will produce a certain pitch Under the same conditions a string half as long will produce a pitch one octave lower?
No. A string half as long as a violin string set vibrating will produce a note one octave higher. That is exactly how the violin is played. When the violinist moves his hand up and down the fingerboard, he is literally shortening the strings making the notes higher or lengthening them to make them lower. The lowest note a violin can reach is the open G string. That is the G below middle C. Pressing down on that string raises the pitch. When you tune your violin, you tune your A string first and then tune your other strings to that string.

How is the violin used?
It is used to make music, which is with the bow that creates the sound. It works like this: there are little microscopic hooks on the bows hair (which is horse hair), which if you use resin it makes the hooks stand up to catch the string and make the sound. The sound vibrates off the sound post inside of the violin, and it comes up trough the f shapes holes, and it creates the sound. When you put your fingers down on the finger board, it creates different high or low sounds, which are the different bases of songs. The violin usually consists of four strings, the G string, the D string, the A string, and the E string. The G being the lowest sounding and thickest string, and the E being the highest sounding and thinnest. You hold the violin and bow a specific way. And, there are many types of music you can play with the violin.

What instruments are in the string family?
There are 4 instruments in the string family. 1. Violin - The violin (also known as the fiddle) is the smallest in the string family, and my personal favorite. It is the smallest, and most high pitched instrument in the string family. The violin comes in many sizes and is fairly easy to play. There are 4 strings on a violin. The lowest string is the G string. The second to lowest string is the D string. Then comes the A string. And lastly the E string. The oldest violin was created in 1555 by Andrea Amati. There are 12 main parts to the violin. The violin's notes are treble clef. 2. Viola - The viola is the second smallest instrument in the string family and a little bit lower pitched. The viola looks very similar to the violin. This instrument use the alto clef. There are also 4 strings on the viola. From lowest pitched to highest pitched they are: G, D, A, and C. 3. Cello - The cello is the second largest instrument in the string family and has the second lowest pitch. The cello is much, much larger in size then the violin and viola. Unlike the violin and viola, the cello is not held up and resting on your chin, but rather you set it on the floor to play. They also play in Alto clef. 4. Bass - The Bass (pronounced Bay-ce) is the largest and lowest pitched instrument in the family. This instrument is also played on the floor and the notes are in bass clef.
