Yes indeed, Joanne, You were one of the one’s who inspired me! The next thing I need to challenge myself is to attempt back up chords on the violin.
And Magpie, I’ve just created a fingerprint challenge that I will post somewhere when I work out how.

Thanks, Mike… I appreciate your kind comments. I am working on my timing and accuracy with this one.

I do have the sheet music if you would like to learn it. I enjoy your posts too…. Happy Fiddling!
