Qualitative Method was used, and data collection was done through interviews and classroom observation in Yangon and Mandalay.

The study results revealed that the Myanmar tradition and customs had positive and negative impacts on western violin study in the areas of teaching and learning styles, teacher and students' relationship and classroom activities. Students were respectful, polite, and obedient towards their teachers. Moreover, the results also showed that the students or players' shyness, sensitivity, honesty and anxiety impacted on students' western violin performance, and technique learning, because there are differences in Western violin performance style and Myanmar Traditional music and performance style.
