ncert hall.

So just because you hear that scratch and creak, with the dampening effect of a concert hall the audience will only
hear the beautiful music.

3. Your violin needs care.

If you have a violin, you need to understand that some work will go into maintaining it. Don’t worry, though - this will
become a habit over time. When a violinist prepares to play, you see them first tightening the bow, then applying a small
object over the bow hair. A bow is shaped with a little bit of a curve. To maintain the curve shape, it has to be loosened each
time it is not in use.

You simply turn the knob at the end of the bow and then turn it the other way the next time you use it. The object that
violinists apply over the hair of the bow is called the rosin. Bow hair is naturally slippery and does not make a sound on its
own. It needs friction and sticky rosin triggers the friction. The rosin leaves a residue on the strings and it has to be cleaned
off.

These are only a few of the things that go into maintaining the instrument, some other tasks include changing bow hair and
the strings from time to time.
