    Debbie, thanks for sharing this with the community and requesting feedback.
    Here’s a rough feedback video I made. Click ‘watch on loom’ for the non sped up version 🙂

      Thanks for your thoughts Jocelyn! I will definitely practice that lift movement , e string transition and third finger intonation. You are very observant and helpful.

      Reitha shared a great video for this tune.

          Very nice Owen, sounded like some creative improvising on the end, yay! Go for it! Some keys seem to just take us on another road, I love that about the fiddle, and your vibrato was very expressive. 😊

          Thanks both! I’ve always struggled with this tune but love it & in this different tuning it sounds like it might work better for me. I need to work on some better fingered ds & chord rhythms! Love these new challenges!

          Yes, great sharing, what a nice flow you have going, the subtle drone chording went well with this tune.

          That was very cool, Joanne! A very good choice to try sawmill. Some of those DS sounded very fine indeed. Good job!
