I also think I might only take lessons in the summer. Is that not enough devotion to this sort of instrument?
Answers:
yes for you can read the music and you will know what the notes should dound like
Piano will help a lot. You already know the notes and how to read music. Plus you have the time down as well as an appreciation for what it takes to become good at an insturment.
Good luck!
How hard can it be? You pull a cat gut stick over wires jack benny could do it so can you.
Piano helps with music learning in general, not just violin...any instrument that you may pursue...piano will help because when learning it, you get to play all the harmonies, whereas in other instruments, you usually play just one melody. About your ear trainning experience, it could help, to certain extent. It probably won't help you too much with intonation because when you play piano, it comes tuned to you, you dont really have to make any effort to make it in tune, but when you play violin, if you are not careful, you may hurt one's ear :p
Good luck!!
