      I don’t take violins exams so I don’t know. I mainly play folk music in pub sessions. You don’t have to be amazing to join in at the kind of sessions I normally go to. If I had to guess I’m probably about grade four. I can do some stuff that I bet many grade 8 violinist can’t do though, like sing a song and play a harmony on the fiddle at the same time.
