Beginner Group 2 years, 9 months agoHow do I know if I’m developing a bad habit? For example, on a couple of songs, if there’s a “side by side” scale and I’m going down the melody like D3-D2-D1, I find I’m holding down all three at the same time and just lifting each finger up. It kinda
happened without me thinking about it but is it a bad habit and will it slow me down in songs…[Read more] -

Beginner Group 2 years, 10 months agoHey folks in this group 🙂
4 of us had a beginner zoom session yesterday and connected on some relatable fiddle topics in our fiddling lives. We are in the works of formulating a regular time to meet.
Who else is interested in being involved with a casual beginner zoom group?
And beyond that, be great to hear folks share what’s current for them…[Read more] -

Beginner Group 3 years, 3 months agoDoing a review of first level tunes I discover that Little Liza Jane was way way too fast. Even now that I’ve been here several months I find the last part of the play-along track too fast. Anybody else?

Thanks for sharing Margaret. Yes it’s quite fast. I tried to thumb strum it with fiddle in guitar position and that helped at bit. Way to try it tho, and yes, other…

Advanced Beginner Group 3 years, 3 months agoHello folks,
Two days ago I joined this group. I kind of expected a “Hello and Welcome”. I know I didn’t get a greeting when I joined the beginner group and I admit I was a bit puzzled. What sort of culture is this I wondered. It used to be, during better times I guess, that when you sort of hung around a group for a bit somebody, generally…[Read more]-
Hey Margaret,
This is a lovely sharing. I fully agree this is what would be ideal! As it stands, these groups are fully functioning by those who utilize it. It would be…

Advanced Beginner Group 3 years, 3 months agoHey, Advanced Beginners! I just wanted to check in with everyone. For unknown reasons, I hit a slump in my fiddle practice in the last week. It hasn’t always felt fun, and I sounded worse to my own ear, and missed too many days too! Having said that, I’ll miss the next 3 weeks of our Monday meetings, because my husband and I leave on trip to…[Read more]

Shucks – I’m sorry I missed it. Our school days were extended due to an abundance of snow days in December and it’s been busy. I can’t make the next one either 🙁 because of the school schedule. Darn! Are you all practicing a specific song?
-
No specific song, Elise, but you might want to be ready to play one or two in a round robin.
