Can I learn both piano and violin?

Yup. You could always learn both! I think starting on piano would give you basic theory, so you don’t have to learn that and the violin at the same time.

Do you need a violin trainer to learn to play?

This is another reason why a violin trainer is recommended in your beginning stages. If you get your posture wrong, then you will have to waste loads of time unlearning it. Unlike the guitar, you won’t get to play nice-to-hear musical notes or tunes from the very start. Whatever you play will be very crass and annoying.

Is it possible to learn two instruments at the same time?

The very act of comparing and contrasting two approaches to a common musical phrase across two mediums will help to embed the processes required for each individual instrument. So learning two instruments at the same time is not only possible but may actually be preferable in achieving a more robust foundation on both instruments.

How long should I practice piano before switching to the violin?

If you practice piano for an hour, then you need an hour downtime before you move onto the violin for another hour. Remember this violin session must be followed by an hour of downtime, to let everything soak in. If you can’t practice every day then that’s okay – but make sure you make that the same day each week if possible.

Is it easier to move notes on the violin?

Moving will be easier, because you’re used to making accurate, quick movements over larger distances (just compare the necks of a guitar and violin). You’re also used to lightening your fingers to transition between pressing notes, whether you’re in one position or you’re shifting on the violin.
