      I’m learning to play some Irish embellishments on tunes and feeling inspired after watching some expert fiddlers at a local folk festival yesterday! So this is a version of Kerfunken with some rolls which turn into mordents when I don’t quite hit them (lol!) & some slides for when all else fails!

      Sounds great Joanne! Such a lot for our brains to co-ordinate when playing the fiddle but you did it smoothly and naturally. Nice work with the 4th finger too. Thanks for sharing. πŸ™‚

      Thanks Marg, you’re right it’s a lot to remember & then try to keep the tune & timing too!

      Nice embellishments, Joanne! Great Irish feel. I haven’t quite worked out the difference between a mordent and a roll yet – have to the Irish fiddle journey. Slides will be my next challenge though, because they are very cool!
