Hello again to you all, I can't beleive I've found this forum. I registered 2 days ago and found the information I've taken from it most interesting...Thankyou all!

Is anyone out there aware of any really good aides that will help me with my playing/bowing techniques. I think a DVD format would suit me personally, however if you have used a different format, book, for instance and can recomend it, I will be pleased to hear about it. I've already found that there is alot of rubbish out there, to my cost, and would be very greatful for your veiws.

Hi Don

Honestly I think the best aid would be to get a teacher.

Other than that you could do worse than study the masters so a DVD of some of the greatest players would be a good investment such as "the art of the violin"

You can get it from Amazon:
