Play Slowly
Go Ridicu-Slow 🐢 If you can’t play something, chances are you’re going too fast. Speeding leads to anxious hands and a cluttered mind. 🤯 Slow down […]-

I am learning to play every tune as a ballad. Great reminder and offered structure will be very handy. Sometimes, I like fast tunes better when they are slow. It’s fun try the different tempo and slow it right down — and for beginner me, often sounds better.

Absolutely stellar advice for learning songs/tunes, especially for those that the fiddle may be their first foray into music/a musical instrument. Also a great reminder to all of us old timers who tend to forget this when learning a tune. Rome was NOT built in a day, folks!
Yes, great insights, Jim 🎶
