      Hi there fellow fiddlers. I am wondering if you try to learn each tune by heart before moving on. I am finding Angeline the Baker is taking forever- maybe I need to find the words to the song so that I can sing it too. I really didn’t like the tune to start with but it is growing on me now! How are you doing withthings like making sure that you are holding your bow correctly- I think that Jason could do a few videos on some of those things interspersed with lessons as a check up.

      Hello there beginner fiddlers. Although nobody has posted in this group for ages and you are all probably a long way into your journey now. How are you all getting on? I have only just started on this course and am finding it very useful. I was having face to face lessons before COVID 19 stopped all of that, I had some ZOOM lessons with a teacher for a while too. I found that we were just working through a book and although it felt good to play tunes I was not really improving with playing by ear or learning any tunes by heart. It would be good to hear from you. I live in England.

      That sounds lovely. Do you know it by heart or use the music?
