A standard violin consists of more than , primarily spruce for the top and maple for the back and sides.
Sound is produced through . When a bow is drawn across a string, the friction causes the string to vibrate in a complex, circular motion. These vibrations travel through the bridge into the hollow body, which acts as an amplifier, moving the surrounding air to create audible tones. Historical Significance
Openings on the top plate that allow sound to project outward.
Typically made of wood and strung with horsehair , which is coated in rosin to create friction and produce sound when drawn across strings. How It Works
Four strings tuned in perfect fifths (G3, D4, A4, E5).
A small wooden piece that holds strings aloft and transfers vibrations from the strings to the hollow body.
