Music schools are a great way to get started with the violin if you’re looking for formal and structured lessons. The Shine School of Music first opened its doors almost ten years ago in 2008. It has since then established itself as one of the most recognized music schools in Barcelona. You can learn a variety of instruments here, including the violin. They offer classes for all levels and all ages, so no matter what your experience, you can find the right class for you. They teach in Spanish, Catalan, and English, and their classes are one-on-one, so they’re tailored to your unique and personal needs. The opening hours are 10:00 – 22:00 and the school’s location is central and convenient. Based in the lovely neighborhood of Gracia, it’s pretty easy to get there by foot, metro or bus. Just make sure to make an appointment beforehand.
If you’re looking for professional lessons, then look no further than the Conservatorio Municipal de Música de Barcelona. They offer classes in the violin and other instruments along with musical culture, singing, and opera. However, you will need to speak Spanish or Catalan if you decide to take music classes there.
