Answer:
Violins are important instruments in a wide variety of musical genres. They are most prominent in the Western classical tradition, both in ensembles from chamber music to orchestras and as solo instruments. Violins are also important in many varieties of folk music, including country music, bluegrass music and in jazz. Electric violins with solid bodies and piezoelectric pickups are used in some forms of rock music and jazz fusion, with the pickups plugged into instrument amplifiers and speakers to produce sound. The violin has come to be incorporated in many non-Western music cultures, including Indian music and Iranian music. The name fiddle is often used regardless of the type of music played on it.
The violin was first known in 16th-century Italy, with some further modifications occurring in the 18th and 19th centuries to give the instrument a more powerful sound and projection. In Europe, it served as the basis for the development of other stringed instruments used in Western classical music, such as the viola.
Violinists and collectors particularly prize the fine historical instruments made by the Stradivari, Guarneri, Guadagnini and Amati families from the 16th to the 18th century in Brescia and Cremona (Italy) and by Jacob Stainer in Austria. According to their reputation, the quality of their sound has defied attempts to explain or equal it, though this belief is disputed. Great numbers of instruments have come from the hands of less famous makers, as well as still greater numbers of mass-produced commercial "trade violins" coming from cottage industries in places such as Saxony, Bohemia, and Mirecourt. Many of these trade instruments were formerly sold by Sears, Roebuck and Co. and other mass merchandisers.
The components of a violin are usually made from different types of wood. Violins can be strung with gut, Perlon or other synthetic, or steel strings. A person who makes or repairs violins is called a luthier or violin maker. One who makes or repairs bows is called an archetier or bowmaker.

Do you think that the future of metalcraft is in danger due to the ability of computers to do most of the work? Explain your reasons why or why not.
pls have at least 3 sentences! thx! :)
Answer:
The majority of metalcraft will probably be replaced by computer and machine work; however, the market for unique, original, hand-made metalcraft will likely continue to exist on a smaller scale and for the different types of consumers.
Explanation:
Metalcraft may be partly in danger, due to the fact that computers can do more and more work, and manual workers are not needed anymore in this area. Computers are also more precise and faster than a human worker who does everything by hands and tools. This is the advantage, as the modern market demands faster production and higher quality so they can distribute more commodities. In the long run, computers cost less – workers have to be paid regularly, and in total, the market spends more money on wages than it would be investing in a good computer.
However, there still might be a market for traditional handmade metalcraft. While there is a bigger market for machine and computer made goods, there is also a market that appreciates handmade unique products. These products will likely be more expensive, but they bring singularity and originality. We can already see the revival in stuff like vinyl records and analog photography, as well as an appreciation for slow, sustainable fashion. I do believe the market for metalcraft will exist, that it will never disappear completely, although it will significantly decline and be replaced by computers.
