Say you’re trying to learn […]

Here’s a simple yet powerful practice technique: Alternate between a tune and its scale.
If you’re practicing Arkansas Traveller, alternate between playing the tune and the D Major scale.
Use a D drone to […]

Hey Henry…just keep practicing. I’m hoping to do group lessons at two different times: 12 and 6 PM PST. That way people all around the world can tune in at a convenient time. Now training a fiddle tutor to help with this. 🤓

I’m new to your course and enjoying very much. I think a lesson on the Mixolydian scale (and other scales) would be good. As you mentioned in your video above, reviewing the scales with the song would be a big help.
I know a little music theory but not very much so if you have any lessons on Music Theory they would be of interest to me.
Thanks,
John

Thanks for your feedback and inquiring, John.

When searching mixolydian, a couple options show up: What is Mixolydian Scale and Fiddling with Mixolydian mode
As for Music Theory, the section called Note Reading for Fiddlers can support learning theory. It can be found under the ‘Courses” tab, then ‘Pathways’
There’s also some common questions answered in the page Fiddle Questions about note reading, found in ‘Support’ tab.

I like how you made some variations 2nd time around, and it didn’t sound much out of tune to me. It’s easy to speed up in the second half. Very enjoyable to listen to!! Thanks, Jeanette.

Because I live in a “Data Desert,” where High Speed is but a dream; I was forced to go to Pole Green Park in town, where data is abundant to listen and watch Office Hours with Melinda on my Iphone. She is a very creative teacher, making a classroom experience that fits her audience on that day. On this day, there weren’t many questions or comments…[Read more]

Great Dylan, Can understand why you’re obsessed with it, it’s a very catchy tune. Nice flourishes too. Thanks for sharing! Nice one to add to Fiddlehed too I reckon.

Thanks, @jasonkleinberg. I used Adobe Premiere Elements…obviously not well (improperly placed video image of backup), but it has potential for next time if I can be a bit more careful.

That’s beautiful @tszalay! How did you did you do it? What editing software did you use?

jason kleinberg replied to the topic Green Willis in the forum Student Videos 4 years, 11 months ago
I love this tune @detale! Thanks for sharing. I like the echo effect, how did you do it?
By the way, when you shared the link it had quotes around it and so the video didn’t show: “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNG_HLLKPZc”.
I edited it, removing the quotes. I only mention this because I want you to keep posting videos!!! -

Here’s an old-time tune called “Big-eyed Rabbit.” It’s in the Round Peak tradition of Tommy Jarrell. It was filmed by a pond in Kenneth Hahn Park in Los Angeles. The only thing missing was the smell of duck poop 🦆 💩
