thanks for the lesson. I'm a complete beginner in violin I'm not used to it. (I self-study) hey, how do you avoid the screeching noises (whatever you call it) while playing the violin? my hand is used to the piano so i think my hand has a lot of weight while holding the bow that makes the screeching noises.

Chevyman, i think it depends on the bow. Some bows are naturally tight, but it looks like too loose. But yeah for normal bows, i think it should be tightened up a little.

can the bridge also have an effect on crossing strings.... what i mean is if the bridge is not properly curve???... when im looking at my bridge and imagining it to be cut in the middle into side A and B... it looks like the the curve of side A is not proportionate with side B... is that fine???

Hi dicerald, Yes, that is normal. The G side is supposed to be a little higher than the E side. The space between the strings should all be the same though. TE

I use to touch the next string to that one I'm playing, and I can't help it. I'm not sure if it's because of my wrist or my arm.
Can you give me some advice to avoid that?

Linuxica,
Start by placing your bow right in the middle, on the A string. Space it right between the E and the D. Now bow three inches and stop. Did it move closer to the E or D or did it stay right between the two? Go back to the middle and bow 4 inches with the same intention. Then try the middle 3rd of the bow. Can you stay right between the D and E? If so, do the same exercize with your eyes closed! Good luck.
