    In regards to the Disney Solos violin book, here is an image of it. It has audio access for instrumental play-along included through a website.

    hi

    I’m new to Fiddlehed but I’ve started at lesson 1.6 as I’ve had lessons for 3 months and it felt comfortable.

    I don’t want to be practising too many tunes at once and never get good at any of them. if I’m working of the tunes in that weeks lesson is it ok to me working on something else as well? I’m currently working on Amazing Grace and have…[Read more]

    Hi
    I recently joined Fiddlehed and am currently on the lesson on Bile em cabbage down. but i was already working on 2 other songs before I joined, Should i just focus on the lesson material? or is it ok to be working on several tunes at same time?

      I would love to see the slur patterns people use for this song. I know it’s personal preference but as a beginner it really helps me to see it. I am a note reader by the way. I tried some slur patterns but I think it could be improved. I also like to have bowing marked as it helps me learn the tune too.

        which tune are you referring too. im terrible for just following the sheet music lol. adding a slur for me is like colouring outside the lines lol.
