Rock violin
Rock violin is rock music which utilizes violin in its instrumental lineup. This includes rock music only and does not include classical style music using melodic motifs from rock.
Rock music and rock and roll bands typically utilize electric guitar for the high range and thus deploy violin only exceptionally. Nevertheless, some rock musicians have experimented with violin in a rock setting as either part of the backup (such as Paul McCartney's "Eleanor Rigby") or as a dual lead instrument sharing the spotlight, or alternating, with lead guitar.〔See for instance Mahavishnu Orchestra Birds of Fire where Jerry Goodman performs an ostinato; John Mayall's USA Union album on which Don "Sugarcane" Harris performs a solo on "Crying".〕 Violin as the featured lead instrument in the rock genre is a rarity and is more frequently associated with regional bands.
==Early history==
The emergence of rock music in the 1950s and 1960s is rooted in the basic instrumentation of drum kit, electric bass guitar and lead electric guitar; all of this instrumentation was fed into tube amplifiers until the emergence of the transistor. Building on this basic setup, other instruments were added as transistor technology advanced, typically the electric keyboard which became popular after the introduction of the Moog synthesizer. Rock violin emerged in the art rock movement which had experimented with classical instruments and musical influences associated with early music. Examples include Jethro Tull, King Crimson and Velvet Underground. In the same era that Ian Anderson popularized the use of flute in rock, others added violin to their line up. These bands included Jefferson Airplane, Fairport Convention, Mahavishnu Orchestra and John Mayall's Bluesbreakers.
