    A FiddleHed subscriber named Michael made this violin. We’re giving it away in a contest. Click here to enter.

    I’m taking requests for tunes. Other requests coming over the next few days: “Lark In The Morning” […]

      Beautiful. Love the speed variation and the ornaments. I’ve been working on this tune. It’s kicking my a**, but getting better incrementally.

    Hey @sitka02,

    This would also be a good tune to teach…

    I love the sea shanties. We’re doing a group lesson on “Leave Her Johnny Leave Her” this Wednesday: https://fiddlehed.com/community/group-lesson-home-page/

    This would be a good one to do in the future…thanks 🙏

    Thanks @elburns64 Sounds good 👍. If possible, post to YouTube so we can see it here. If not, no big deal.
    We were just thinking of teaching this tune.

    Hey @gary524
    This is be-you-tea-full. How did you make this?
    What did you use for backing tracks? How did you add the reverb?
    It would be fun other folks to get into this…

    Thanks!

      Bro I wish this was earlier in the course! I’ve always struggled with putting the individual quarters together and with being too dependent on playing through from the very beginning (i.e., if I mess up I have to start all over). I will definitely use this technique!

      Thank you so much. This is going to be very helpful in both this course and my private lessons. Learning a rather tricky piece right now, but applied chaining and it’s actually coming together.

        That’s awesome. Denise. Thanks for giving insights on your experience with this. Simple practise tools that we can get familiar with and utilize wherever 🙂 🎶

      This is suddenly a really hard tune out of the blue! Good thing I can read sharps and naturals – otherwise it would be a total loss without even a sound bite as a guide. I will keep at it though. Your lessons are really awesome and I am learning a lot.

        Thanks for sharing, Catherine. Your motivation in the challenge is great to experience. Thanks for your interest in the program!
        Simplifying more than I originally think or plan to always helps me with trickiness.

        Hi Susieq, yes good point. Other instruments can work great with these types of exercises, like piano 🎹 Glad to hear you enjoy!

      I like the chaining idea, especially as it relates to parts of a song. I tend to want to play the whole song without really paying attention to the parts. I find it easier to do with a song I am trying to learn rather than with plain scales.

        Jocelyn Martens replied 2 years ago

        Thanks for sharing these insights, Bill. Yea, a neat tool to utilize for deeper practise and gives a good alternate perspective to something in whole.

    It’s so exciting getting a new violin! I’ve been having fun with my new electric. It’s taken a bit of adjusting to the full size from a 3/4 size, but it is so much better. I’d really like to get a full size acoustic as well one day, but live a long way from any music shops, and don’t want to buy online. I think it’s a good idea to play before you…[Read more]

    Thanks for sharing Owen, I haven’t started variations yet, and they are obviously very difficult. I reckon you got some good ones in there. We’re all a work in progress!
