Niiiice.So great to hear you playing this cool tune.

Your tone and tuning is really good!

I would work on playing at a steady tempo. Play each quarter with a metronome. Loop at different speeds. Nothing too fast. Just go for steadiness. Eventually play the whole tune with a metronome.

Let me know how it goes: [email protected]

Would you like feedback on your playing?

Niiiiice. You didn’t seem nervous…

I agree with all the above comments Marg! Beautifully done. As I listened, I thought I recognized the melody. After a bit, I realized it seemed so like Shady Grove, a song I know. Could they be one and the same, I wonder. Great job Marg.

Sorry they didn’t go first time, Sally

Here’s the lyrics. Try singing it to the melody. I can’t sing well, but it’s fun and helps you know where the song’s going.

Very well done, Sally. Good tone on this very popular tune. Have you ever seen the lyrics…pretty hilarious!? Congrats!

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.”

I liked that Seth; two fun songs, and you did well with them!

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!

Nicely done, Joanna! Tone, timing, string crossing and triplets all very good‼️
