    I decided to learn a couple things at once with the speed challenge. I’ve been wanting to figure out how to do split clips with iMovie, so this is a first. Since playing with others is one of the things I like the best, I chose the only other person in the house who plays anything–me. I plan on adding variations as I go along. It wasn’t easy to…[Read more]

    A FiddleHed named Malik asked “Can you explain for me what a G-Clef is?”

    The fancy scroll with a tail that appears at the beginning of fiddle music is called the treble clef.

    The other name for it is […]

    Hi – just a couple of months in to learning the fiddle! Making slooooooow progress – but Jason says that’s the way, so I’m keeping on going! Sort of got the basics but challenged with getting the right notes in D major and my bow has a mind of its own! Any tips from other beginners vrey welcome.

    So Iโ€™ve been at this for a month or so now and I feel confident enough to play in front of someone else- lazy John or Oh Susannah etc… However, I freeze up and my mind goes a bit blank. I mess up so much more. I can get flustered, cheeks burning. When Iโ€™m by myself- I am flowing along easily. Any thoughts? Any advice on how to โ€œpracticeโ€ staying…[Read more]

          I have the same problem. I asked Jason and he posted some really good tips on how to deal with it. Search How to Overcome Stage fright . It’s an issue I still deal with but there’s hope ๐Ÿ™‚ I am getting better.

            Hopefully this won’t break the spell, @kvmceff but actually Neil Gow’s second ‘wife’ was his violin, which he accidentally damaged beyond repair. Some say he sat on it, but I don’t know if that’s true.
