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!
-
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…

Thanks for the help with the minor key transposition.

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!!!!!-
Nice @sarahb,
I wanna hear what you guys come up with 🎻

Just finished watching the video. Excellent suggestions! Even though Iβve been playing flute, piano for decades (teach and perform both), practicing does seem like βworkβ sometimes, especially now when we canβt play with live people -although weβre starting to see a light at the endβ¦ Yay! Now Iβm going to try them out.🎶😊

Hey @hmk,
You can apply this creative practice approach to any instrument. Have fun 🕺🏾

Great tone from that beautiful fiddle.
-
Jason, You are awesome, and you make learning fiddle fun, and this video made me smile. Timing is my biggest challenge, so I will try the metronome…. Thank you! π
-
Awesomeness
-
Thanks so much!! Some of these things Iβve done, but not all! I love your lessons!!
-
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. -
the klezmer way is totally cool

Hello! I just bumped into this workshop with 17 ways to practice the Jenny Lynn tune. Thank you and there’s even more stuff to look at. Great!

Last weekend I finished a recording session with my old friend Joe Rut. Overall, it went well. We did six tunes in about two and a half days. Three of these are long form “fiddle raga” pieces, while the other […]

Jason, I love the sound of the new tune “To You….” very hypnotic it reminds me a bit of Sigur Ros.
-
Thanks @joanneiles
I’m a big fan of Sigur Ros.

The clip of your song is quite nice. Thank goodness you moved through or around the roadblocks to its creation and completion.

Very, very pretty song ” To You (and everyone else wandering in the world.)”

thanks Owen π

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing with us.

Hi Jason, what a lovely relaxed vibe. It’s unmistakably you; light fiddle and drone/indian music drone box thingy. It’s a hit!

Thanks @ear_eim_ear_eim 🙏

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 – Itβs a great idea to create your own accompaniment. Thanks for posting!

A FiddleHed named Malik asked “Can you explain for me what a G-Clef is?”
The fancy scroll with a tail that appears at the beginning of fiddle music is called the treble clef.
The other name for it is […]

I’ve been reading The War of Art, which is about overcoming resistance in creative work. Though I’ve been making things my whole life, I still have to do battle with Resistance.
For example, I’ve been writing […]

Just ordered this book. Looking forward to a good read.

Love the raga blend!

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

That is beautiful, exotic….love it! I want to learn to play it :).
