Violins are one of the most versatile musical instruments, as evidenced by their use in various musical genres. They are commonly featured in classical music, pop, bluegrass, country, and jazz.

The violin is the smallest of the stringed instruments, which also include the viola and the cello. It has four strings, tuned from low to high, G D A E, with each note being a perfect fifth of the one below it. A violin looks like a hollow wooden box with a long neck protruding from one end. The body of the violin is typically made from a combination of different types of wood. The top of the violin, also known as the belly, is usually made from spruce, which is a strong type of softwood. The sides and back are made from maple, which is harder and more durable than spruce. Ebony is the most common choice for the fingerboard, but sometimes ivory is used. Cheaper models may use other types of wood that are simply painted to look like ebony. Traditionally, violin strings were made from gut, but nowadays they are made from metal.

The violin is played by pressing the strings against the fingerboard with the left hand while drawing a bow across the strings with the right hand. The bow is a long wooden rod with strands of horsehair tied to each end. A violin bow looks similar to a bow used to shoot arrows, but is much smaller. Violinists typically play one note on one string at a time, but they can also play chords by pressing down and bowing multiple strings at once. Some pieces of music require the violinist to pluck the strings with the fingers of the right hand instead of bowing them, producing a short, staccato sound.

Violins have been used for centuries and are still common in modern music. The sounds produced by a violin can complement other musical instruments and enrich a piece of music.
