If you look at the cello, then the first impression you have is that it is a huge guitar. However, it does not belong to the family of guitars, but rather that of the violins. This is a huge hollow wooden instrument that is played with the bow in the right hand, while the end pin is placed on the floor. The handle is balanced by the left hand, which also manipulates the strings. The first cellos had five strings and as such were not as versatile as the present versions, which have only four; A, D, G and C. The C is the lowest note and the A is the highest. Because the instrument is played with four strings, it can be assimilated into both classical and modern types of music with equal ease. Looking back at its three-stringed ancestors, the present version has managed to keep its free voice, while retaining the elegance of a classical instrument.

The introduction of the Suzuki program revolutionized the way in which music is taught, making it easy for children to learn to play at a much earlier age. As a result, smaller solo violins became necessary, and were made in 3/4, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16 and even 1/32 sizes. The purpose for the smaller instruments was to provide a size better proportioned for a child, allowing them to learn more easily. One size that is especially popular for very young children is the 1/16 violin.

If your preschool child is interested in learning to play the violin, or if you simply want them to learn the basics of playing, then the 1/10 violin may be your best option. A full-sized instrument is too long for them to reach the lower notes at the end of the neck. A fractional sized instrument, however, allows a child to learn the fingering along the entire length of the neck, which helps encourage a child’s desire to learn. The various sizes can be confusing, however, leaving buyers dependent on salespeople, who may not always give the best advice.
