    I simply go over the tunes I know and try to iron out any bumps, focusing on one or two tunes at a time. Then I spend a while learning a new tune (Blackest Crow at the moment) and finally just for fun I play the tunes I like best and sometimes experiment with a bit of variation, like slightly changing the rhythm or setting a different emphasis…[Read more]

      The Dashboard, under Practice Toolkit. The Practice Journal tab opens alright, but when I click the ‘+’ icon nothing happens (actually the scrollbar at the side of the page disappears, so there might be some issue with that page?)

I also got a different shoulder rest…[Read more]

      Hi everyone,

      I’m relatively new to the fiddle and really delighted to finally get the chance to learn it. So I like to practise a good bit — trying to make up for the decades I missed out on, I suppose — but I’m really feeling it in the auld bones. I was wondering if any of you would like to share your tips on how you’re dealing with that?
