Violin Tabs

Hi--I'm a new violin learner with the purpose of praising God in music. Anybody know where I can find violin tabs--praise arrangments....whatever?
Thanks!

If you really want to learn violin, you should probably learn to read sheet music, play by ear, or both. But sorry, I don't know where to find them. I would imagine there are companies who publish sheet music for violin parts to p&w music.

Hi. There are no such things as violin tabs. You read violin scores with staves and notes.
I don't think you'll need scores for praise songs. If you learn the notes on the violin, you'll be able to figure songs out.
Tell me if you need any other help.

I believe it would be quite impossible to have violin tabs. Tab indicates where to fret a string, but the violin doesn't have frets, it is played by ear and memory. So learn to read sheet music and play ALOT.

I read and write violin/fiddle tabs.
Although, for what you are desiring to learn, I suggest learning to read sheet music, and by ear first. That way you will know the correct placement for your fingers.

For the type of music I play and teach, it is almost entirely ear learning. If I have a student or friend that can't pick it up well by ear, I tab it out as a help for their initial learning, then encurage them to memorize it.
If you know the key in which the song is played, and correctly mark any accidentals it is actually quite easy to read tab.
