Who else is interested in being involved with a casual beginner zoom group?
And beyond that, be great to hear folks share what’s current for them…[Read more] -

Beginner Group 3 years, 5 months agoHi I’m Shelley and have been trying to play fiddle for two weeks. I mainly play baroque and renaissance recorder in a chamber group and after going to a couple Irish sessions got obsessed with playing fiddle. I am using a 3/4 violin, and this size was a lot easier for me to manage after starting with a friend’s old and difficult to tune full…[Read more]
