      I’ve started using these techniques in my practice. Please consider doing a lesson on transposing to a minor key. I need some help with that one!

      • Profile picture of jason kleinberg
        jason kleinberg replied 4 years, 12 months ago

        Good idea @debhill

        Here’s a quickie lesson on how to do it.
        -Play a major key tune.
        -Play its major scale.
        -Play the minor (Aeolian) scale (lower the third, sixth, seventh steps)
        -Sub out those notes as they fall in the tune.

        Have fun…

      FiddleHed Group 1 Intermediate ( 3 members created during the first breakout group session) are practicing this tune, some suggested variants, and / eventually the variations with double stops, etc. It is quite fun and quite challenging! We are going to continue next week.
      Thanks, Jason and team!!!!!

      Just finished watching the video. Excellent suggestions! Even though I’ve been playing flute, piano for decades (teach and perform both), practicing does seem like β€˜work’ sometimes, especially now when we can’t play with live people -although we’re starting to see a light at the end… Yay! Now I’m going to try them out.🎶😊

      Love all these suggestions! Have done a lot of them, but I need to practice playing things way over there in the minor key more.
      I’m sure you talk about this somewhere else, but I also love to swing the beat when I’m trying to wrap my head around a new tune… sometimes I just like them better that way anyway.

    Wow! Now I want to learn the banjo too! It sounded really good and I think you should also do a lesson on how you did the video – It’s a great idea to create your own accompaniment. Thanks for posting!

          love this jason! i liked the conversations about it being too weird for fiddlers and too normal for the experimental lovers. I guess a better way to look at it is its the best of both worlds, and hopefully for everyone. it sounds like a shuti box! have you ever heard or used one? I’ve been really wanting one for a long time. i love drone music which is why i first got interested in violin. anyway i wanted to share this video with you if i can. its my favorite shuti box performance I’ve ever seen. beautiful, and maybe an inspiration in there somewhere for fiddlers? i don’t know. https://youtu.be/hEzO947WtZU
