Hey Mary,
Enjoyed the Intermed. Practice last week. Jason sure challenges us. I guess that makes a good teacher. I hope you enjoyed it also. I am working my way through the Irish Fiddle lesson, very slowly; but a bit every day. Today and last night I worked a bit on Rights of Man, just the basic version; trying to learn the tune. I still…

Interleaving is alternating between different skills as you practice.
Instead of pounding away at a difficult scale for an entire session, a difficult bowing in another session, and then a hard tune in […]

Hey, I’ve been playing a little over a year but only since March with Jason’s program. I am just starting the immediate level lessons. I have played piano and sung for many years so I read music and struggle with ear training.
You?-
Hi Mary, I’ve been playing violin for just over a year too. I started with the beginner’s course because I really had no idea about bowing etc, though I have played other instruments, I’d never really learnt how to read music properly. I’ve really improved with that and am so much better at following the tempo. The beginner’s course al…

Sounds like we are having similar expereinces. I too, skipped some of the ear training because I as frustrated but have gone back to it. I sometimes try and play along with a group on Youtube. My Friday jam sessions have stopped because covid-19 did a number on the group back in December. I miss playing with people but understand not…
-
I haven’t joined in the group sessions because I’m in Australia and the time zones don’t work, so just working my way through the modules – up to 2.2. I’ve only started gaining confidence playing with others and played with the ukulele club yesterday. It is so much fun and I understand how you must miss your jam sessions. I’ve discovere…

Review Tobin’s Jig this afternoon and recorded it with the low fiddle play-along track. Love those and the full track. Thanks, Jason, for making learning to fiddle fun.

Anyone open to a group practice session? I have been playing about a year. Working on module 1.10. I’m in eastern time zone. Any afternoon/evening time works for me except Wednesday.
-
I’m just coming into the friends section and, yes, I would love a group practice session I really miss the jam group I was in and would like to show some sort of improvement when we can resume.
-
I’m eastern time zone and for the most part any time is good. My kids have a Covid ankle bracelet on me. A bit of preplanning would probably be best.
-
What is a Covid ankle bracelet? I’m curious.
-
🤣. They have me on lockdown so I won’t get Covid. It’s my crazy term for their protectiveness.
-
Understood. My parents are just getting over COVID at 88 and 84. It’s not fun. We thought we might lose them both but are making the road to recovery. We are blessed.
-
I’m glad they’re on the mend. I know numerous people who have died with it. I’m 85 and have weathered a lot but have no desire to make that one of the list. So I tolerate the imaginary ankle bracelet with a smile.

It would be nice if we could make music all day long. But life gets in the way: work, chores, social obligations, health issues. Shoot, sometimes we just need to relax on the couch with Netflix. So most of us have […]
