A Yahoo mailing list newsgroup intended for ... well, beginning adult violin students! This is a nice newsgroup -- just the right amount of traffic, plus lots of questions and answers of interest to violin students of the adult persuasion. Some great tips on strings, vibrato, practicing, etc, etc. Also, they load some nice ABC tunes in their ONELIST shared files directory. You have to join the list to access the files, but the messages make joining really worthwhile.

Not a sheet music site -- instead, it promotes Sue Aston's violin CD -- and offers RealPlayer transcriptions of the 16 tracks. Also contains tips and techniques. Really wonderful violin music -- if you have RealPlayer, give it a listen (and if you don't, you can download a free copy at this site!)

Roam the vicinity of the rivers of Ljungan and Ljusnan in the "midnorth" part of Sweden and find a variety of traditional fiddle / violin tunes. To many of the tunes, you will find an accompanying second part suggested, and to some tunes are also added a midi version. You will also find tunes from some other parts of Scandinavia, though the emphasis is on the regions of Jämtland, Härjedalen and Medelpad, with their rich and varying - but perhaps not so well-known - folk music traditions.
