    Wasn’t that wonderful! Really smooth bowing and so well done, Kate. Did you choose the songs by key, style or both?

    So sorry I missed that rendition, Patty. I thought you played it really well; timing, tone and bowing! Love that it touches different octaves. I will have to try it. Wonder if is considered old time bluegrass. Will have to look it up. Bravo‼️

    That sounded like fun, Joanne. Liked the beat and the triplets. I am shy of playing in front of people (good with animals), but there are many jams here in Richmond, Virginia. But, right know Strum Machine suffices. I like it.

    Thanks, Nancy. It’s just the video app on my IPad, under “photos.”

    Very nicely done, Joanne. Looks like a lot of fun to play. Liked the double stops and the drone idea.

    Yup, recording often sounds different than what we hear; pretty much for all of us. I liked the song and how you played it!

    What connections can you make between fiddling and the rest of your daily activity?

    Asking a question like this is the activity of a growth mindset.

    A fixed mindset is a belief that your abilities are […]

      I am ready to start paying the $39 per month to get access to FiddleHed lessons. I’d like to select the ones I think I need, and go at my own pace. i am 93 years old and used to play the violin. I can’t see how to do that form the information presented as my trial subscription runs out. It wants me to set up goals, records of accomplishments, and “I-don’t-know-what-else.”

      Please let me know how I can do it in this way, if that is possible. I like your method of breaking the elements of violin playing into small pieces that can be practiced separately.

        Hope you received a reply and are giving this a go Mr Crook! My understanding is you can indeed roam across the site and take your own approach with the direction if that suits you better. Wish you every good luck in returning to the violin, hope this endeavour brings you much pleasure.

    That was very good, Marg; a nice light touch, fine tone and timing, and you sway to the beat as well….Hip-Hip!!

    Patty, that was really good. I loved the second string crossing to the lower octave; sounded so cool. A good flow throughout! A special song, I think.

    Why do we play music? For most of the answer is, “I do it for fun and enjoyment.”

    Here’s another reason people start playing an instrument: they want to upgrade their thinking.

    How does learning […]

    Nice!

    I fixed the link for you. It should look like “https://youtu.be/sNADk1KnXK0”

    instead of:
    “Breton Gavotte with Strum Machine“

    I’ve been practicing chordal scales. Here I added it to an old-time tune called Rickett’s Hornpipe.
