New - VIOLA FINGERING GAME


VIOLA TUNER - Tune your viola with this attractive, simple to use, viola tuner. See the string, peg and note that you want to tune.


Download and print this VIOLA FINGERING CHART by Scherl & Roth instrument makers, to quickly learn and use the correct fingering along with viola sheet music.
See the notes and their relative fingerings on each string in first position . Also see the notes written on the staff beneath . This chart contains eight common keys with up to three sharps and four flats.


Are you wondering which size viola you have? See below how to measure it.

Use Fiddlerman's RHYTHM GAME to learn to count rhythms in sheet-music and to be rhythmical. This game will speed up the learning process and make it fun at the same time.


Intonation Game

Use the INTONATION GAME game to improve your intonation. Practice focusing on slight differences between to close tones and identifying the problem.


Use this attractive viola  METRONOME as often as you like to practice keeping a steady beat when practicing your parts.

Use DRONES to work on your intonation slowly and focus on the overtones.

+1 to that.

I've been using a flash-card-style app on my iPhone, but it doesn't give feedback. A "game" here on Violaman.com would be handy and likely a frequent draw to new visitors.

LOL, that is great Barry. I got kicked off violinist.com and I didn't even think I was spamming. I thought I was being careful but apparently not careful enough. I was pleasantly surprised to see 30 unread posts today when I logged in. :-)
