Hi Skittunes,

Just in case you’re not aware of it, Jason does record and post all of the group lessons and office hours for us to watch later. You can catch Whiskey Before Breakfast on reruns! 😊🎻

    In reply to - Skttunes posted an update Got up early. Got a good 30 minute practice in. Focused on small gains. And slowing down. Plan on starting a musical. Journal today .Hoping to get another half hour practice in this evening. Wish I could have attended the zoom event. Whiskey before breakfest Is one of my faves! Dang ,daytime job hours conflicted. 😪 ]]>         2c71e52e3186a6527b30f8e123a4f252 cbFidHed2020 replied to the topic Bisonpolska in the forum Share Your Practice https://fiddlehed.com/forums/topic/bisonpolska/#post-56726 Wed, 27 Apr 2022 03:25:14 -0700 Jocelyn,

    Thank you for sharing this. I love the music by Vasen and that nyckelharpa is such an interesting instrument.

    I would love to hear your audio file. When I try to play it, or even download and play it, on my iPad I get no sound whatsoever and an error message accompanying the file.

    Carolyn B.

I can’t believe how far and fast you’ve gone with your fiddling. Plus you have the courage to perform in public, in a bar in Spain, no less. Congratulations!!

Very smooth bowing and a lot of life to your performance. I’ve been playing this tune myself a lot lately, and I appreciate what you’ve done with it.

I like that mournful “droning lonesome sound” you evoke with your laments and the Raagini. It’s like a trip to the Isles. Love the photos! I’m sure it took some effort to put that together. Thanks for sharing.

      Maybe one of the more seasoned veterans on this site could comment on the whole bowing thing. The down bow is supposed to be a naturally louder sound to emphasize a beat, but to me up or down sound pretty much the same???

      Hi Tom, Jason has a great video on accenting certain beats within the hoe down rhythm that may help with this: Module 1.3,…[Read more]
