Hey @gary524
This is be-you-tea-full. How did you make this?
What did you use for backing tracks? How did you add the reverb?
It would be fun other folks to get into this…Thanks!

Excellent! This is a challenging tune. I still stumble on the 3rd quarter of the B part when I play it fast…

Here’s a fiddle raga version of Lucy Farr’s. I made some brief liner notes about what I did in each section of the performance.
Fiddle raga is my term for an improvisational interpretation of a fiddle tune. It […]

Nice job Jason. I really liked your performance and the Martin Hayes version also. I liked the harmonics at the end.

I love the experimenting! Gives me ideas of my own for future playing.

Well I just loved how that unfolded over time with your ability to enfold and follow musical phrases to go simple then complex. I was totally engaged.

Well done, Kate! I’d say you’re ready. Like the little “rif” you put in during the recording. Good use of the fourth finger as well. And yes, your voice is fine!

When practicing something difficult, see if you can break it down into a series of small, intermediate steps.
I’ve been learning bluegrass solos from a book by a great fiddler named Annie Staninec. […]

cynhrossi replied to the topic Lover's Waltz-new very old fiddle audition in the forum Student Videos 5 years ago
Beautiful sounding fiddle, Jo! It has a deep voice. Reminds me of two old fiddles I found a few years ago. One was German and the other was Czech. Deep throated sound. Can you play the fiddle both left- and right-handed?
Thanks for sharing! Always interested in this journey.

Great lesson makes thing fun and makes the mind wonder into new music and growth…
Bro I wish this was earlier in the course! I’ve always struggled with putting the individual quarters together and with being too dependent on playing through from the very beginning (i.e., if I mess up I have to start all over). I will definitely use this technique!
Thank you so much. This is going to be very helpful in both this course and my private lessons. Learning a rather tricky piece right now, but applied chaining and it’s actually coming together.
That’s awesome. Denise. Thanks for giving insights on your experience with this. Simple practise tools that we can get familiar with and utilize wherever 🙂 🎶
This is suddenly a really hard tune out of the blue! Good thing I can read sharps and naturals – otherwise it would be a total loss without even a sound bite as a guide. I will keep at it though. Your lessons are really awesome and I am learning a lot.
Thanks for sharing, Catherine. Your motivation in the challenge is great to experience. Thanks for your interest in the program!
Simplifying more than I originally think or plan to always helps me with trickiness.
Neat…you sort of do that with piano, too, don’t you? Great stuff!
Hi Susieq, yes good point. Other instruments can work great with these types of exercises, like piano 🎹 Glad to hear you enjoy!
I like the chaining idea, especially as it relates to parts of a song. I tend to want to play the whole song without really paying attention to the parts. I find it easier to do with a song I am trying to learn rather than with plain scales.
Thanks for sharing these insights, Bill. Yea, a neat tool to utilize for deeper practise and gives a good alternate perspective to something in whole.
