The purposes of the current study were 1.to construct The Construction of Basic Improvisation Exercises with Chord Tones for Violin that could reach the determined criterion of 80/80 2. to improve students' violin improvisation skills at the determined criterion using the developed exercise. 3) to study the satisfaction of the learners on The Construction of Basic Improvisation Exercises with Chord Tones for Violin. It is an experimental research. (Experimental Design) has research tools such as experimental research. (Experimental Design) The research tools were (1) a form for practicing basic violin improvisation skills with chord tones (2) a pre- and post-study test (3) an during-study test (4) a questionnaire for the pre- and post-study Satisfaction of the learners with the skill exercises with a sample of 4 people. The sample group of students were violin students from the Vivace Institute of Music. Selected a specific Purposive Sampling from the test that the researcher has created. The total duration of the experiment was 8 weeks, 1 session per week, 2 hours per lesson, a total of 10 hours. The data collected from the test and questionnaire were then analyzed using descriptive statistics consisting of percentage, mean, standard deviation. and compare by t-test and then use the data collected from documents, interview form, test record form to Content Analysis. The results showed that 1) The practice form for basic violin improvisation skills with chord tones was effective at 83.69/85.83, which was higher than the 80/80 threshold set. 2) The skills of basic violin improvisation with chord tones using a collaborative learning method showed that the students had higher knowledge skills in improvising violin with chord tones after school than before. with an efficiency index of 0.8 It was shown that the students' knowledge skills in improvising the violin with chord tones increased by 80 or equal to 80 percent. and 3) It was found that the students were satisfied with the Preliminary Violin Improv Skills Practice with a mean chord tone of (x̅= 4.21) which was the most satisfied criterion level.
