Do instrument players have longer left fingers?

Yes we do. And I am talking here about strings players (the left hand has longer fingers), because during playing we stretch our fingers to be able to play intervals like 10th (which is more used among the intervals bigger than an 8th), for example, but also playing the chords may need some stretching... BUT the fingers are not much longer, so do not imagine some freak monster... :)


How do you play chord and not stop a string from playing?

You must keep your fingers of your left hand on the same frets as the chord, after you strum across the strings. If you release your fingers from the frets, the string will stop vibrating very rapidly.

What are the notes of the violin from lowest to highest?

Well, there are 4 main strings. In order from lowest to highest, it is G, D, A and E being the highest. One finger on the G string is A. Two fingers is B. Three is C and four are D, making the same noise as the open D string. One finger on the D string is E. Two fingers are F. Three fingers are G, and fourth ringer making the same noise as the open A string. One finger on the A string is B. Two fingers are C, and three fingers are D sharp. Fourth finger makes the same noise as open E. One finger on the open E string is F. Second finger is G, third finger is A, and fourth ringer is B, making that the highest note on the violin.


What is vibrato?

Vibrato will give the sound more warmth and expressiveness, sting players make liberal use of vibrato. The word litteraly means "vibrating" or "quivering" and it implies performinga note with a slight rapid and regular varations of pitch. In string players it is produced by rocking the finger of the left hand which is stopping the string - thus it cannot be applied to a note produced by an open string, nor to very short notes.


How do you play a chord on guitar that has a note on the g string and Astring but nothing on the d string?

-----------7------------------ ------------------------------ -----------9------------------ something like that, how do you play that? ============ You will have to use your fingertips (usually the index and ringfinger) to fret those notes, while using the fleshy part of those fingers -- or another finger -- to lightly rest on the D string without fretting it down. That will mute that string, and you can strum all three strings but only have the A and G strings sound. Alternately, if the style of music allows, you can play those strings with fingers, bypassing the need for left-hand string muting. Ritchie Blackmore of Deep Purple, for example, played the famous riff to "Smoke on the Water" using his fingers, not a pick. And Lindsey Buckingham of Fleetwood Mac also uses primarily his fingers to pick the strings. oo okay thanks!

How do you make the Eiffel tower using a cat's cradle?

Hook your string behind your pinkie and thumb and so you can see the string around your middle fingers when looking at it from your palm. Using your middle finger or first finger of your right hand, hook your finger through the string on your left hand. Do the same with your left hand. Hook your thumb with the string on the furthest side of your first finger, and bring your thumb back to it's place. Now, carefully, lift the bottom piece of string on your thumb over the top piece of string and off the finger. Now let go of the string on your pinkies. If you stop here you have a cup and saucer... Using your mouth bite the middle bit of the saucer...AND THERE YOU HAVE IT!!

How do you make high sounds and low sounds on a violin?

| To make higher pitched sounds you place your fingers further away from the scroll, which is also nearer to your chin. These are usually the fingers of the left hand.,, Tom play lower pitched notes you place your finger tips onto the string nearer to the scroll. The scroll is that "curly" end of the violin close to the pegs which can be turned tighter or looser to "tune" the strings to their correct pitch.
