      Way to go, Deb! Now that song is in my head! Seems like it would be a good one to harmonize with or to play along with. Not many posting lately; you “broke the ice.” As usual.

      Hey Keith! Real enjoyable playing. You stayed right in time and in tune with the backing track and played for a good long time. I agree Jocelyn is a great coach with FH. Keep it up!

      Great job, jumping right in and putting a video up! Noticed that you don’t use a shoulder rest. I know some fiddlers do without one. So far, what’s you’re favorite style of music; old time, Irish, Polkas, waltzes….? And what is your favorite type of practice; scales and variations of scales, call and response, play Alongs on FH site…..? Have fun, David.

      Looks like fun, Joanne! Sounds like you tuned g string to d? Am I right? Regardless, the DS were great. Very rustic, B&W!!

      Thank you all! I found what Marg says to be true; “I find I have to practice a new tune a lot and get to know it well and then the accents seem to come through naturally.”

      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.
