You can approach music practice and creation as a conversation. In the conversation, you continuously alternate between areas of practice. Musical conversation generates insight. It helps you to break […]

Your tone and tuning is really good!
I would work on playing at a steady tempo. Play each quarter with a metronome. Loop at different speeds. Nothing too fast. Just go for steadiness. Eventually play the whole tune with a metronome.
Let me know how it goes: [email protected]

I am ready to start paying the $39 per month to get access to FiddleHed lessons. I’d like to select the ones I think I need, and go at my own pace. i am 93 years old and used to play the violin. I can’t see how to do that form the information presented as my trial subscription runs out. It wants me to set up goals, records of accomplishments, and “I-don’t-know-what-else.”
Please let me know how I can do it in this way, if that is possible. I like your method of breaking the elements of violin playing into small pieces that can be practiced separately.

Hope you received a reply and are giving this a go Mr Crook! My understanding is you can indeed roam across the site and take your own approach with the direction if that suits you better. Wish you every good luck in returning to the violin, hope this endeavour brings you much pleasure.

Why do we play music? For most of the answer is, “I do it for fun and enjoyment.”
Here’s another reason people start playing an instrument: they want to upgrade their thinking.
How does learning […]

Ask questions as you practice. Don’t worry about the answer. The question brings awareness to what you’re doing.
Ask questions before, during and after a practice session

Hey Lisa, Thanks for mentioning your experience, sorry we couldn’t help you that day. May be good to email Jason for potentially a quicker response in situations like these. I checked the calendar and noticed the 9AM PT open practise was scheduled for April 18 so you may have missed it by a day. There are instances where sometimes the wrong zoom link goes out, so if it’s not automatically opening the session shortly after the scheduled time, check your email for an updated link.
To my knowledge, these practise sessions will start right around the scheduled time on Zoom with a welcome intro, then practising together where you are muted, Jason is not muted so you can either mute your own sound to fully focus on your own practise, or choose to listen/watch whats going on for him/others, and then closer to the end of the session there is a discussion together.
I hope it lines up for you to join another day. -

You can add any page to favorites by clicking the button at the bottom of the page, just above ‘leave a reply’ section.
You can access your favorite list from the ‘practise toolkit’, which can be found under the ‘Practise’ tab, or close to the bottom of most lessons.
You can also access your favourites list to the right of the ‘favorite’ button, when you select the page as a favourite.
I’ve made a note of this to put an explainer into the ‘How to Use FiddleHed’ section. Thank you for the feedback!

One of my SPC goals is to learn and play songs on the fiddle. I’m starting by strumming the fiddle like a mandolin, which is easier. I’ll work towards being able to bow and sing songs.
