    Thanks cynhrossi and Lindsey, you’re very kind. I tried this arrangement with friends playing flute, fiddle, banjo and guitar last weekend. We’re hoping to work it up to performance level along with other tunes we’re working on.

    Great job, Debbie! Love the sound of your fiddle! Loved your Drowsy Maggie, but for some reason, I could not respond to your video there to tell you.

    Are your string crossings sloppy? Do you unintentionally hit other strings as you play? Are the fingered notes a bit mushy?

    If so, you’re not alone. These are common bowing pitfalls. In this lesson I’ll give y […]

      Hello Jason! Are all the bow hairs supposed to be flat on string? Or is it only part of the width of hairs hitting the string? I never know what to do or practice. New to Fiddlehed!

    Do you struggle with getting a good sound on the fiddle? Are you unsure of how much pressure to use? Do you want a smoother bow sound?

    If so, take heart. You’re not the only one. In this lesson I’ll show you […]

    I liked playing this slur three and accented the beginning of each bow stroke and adding in cuts. Played while listening to a drone of D. It’s a amazing how in-tune it sounded when I played and how out of tune it sounds on play back. Any one else notice this, lol

    I enjoy playing different instruments for different reasons, and like to muck about with Garageband. I still struggle with intonation on the fiddle but love it’s expressive nature and sense of play (as in fun). I think I will cut this down a bit, it has one more riff than I intended.
