- 2 exercises to help you demystify the process of practicing rolls in your Irish fiddle tunes!
If you think rolls are the trickiest ornament to play on the fiddle… you’d be right! But just because they’re challenging doesn’t mean you can’t develop the muscle memory to master them. This video will show you 2 different exercises I used in my own practice to help me transition from classical violin music to playing professional level Irish fiddle tunes.

Are you already practicing scales with rolls?
This will help me a lot . Thanks ˂3
@@gilberthcordero6302 Yes!! That's great to hear, Gilberth -- keep me posted!
Yes, I learnt it in a workshop, and it helps a lot, for the rolls and the bow !
@@sarahleberre6063 that's wonderful, Sarah! I'm glad that scales are helpful for you too when it comes to practicing rolls and different bow patterns!
Awesome 5 loop roles!!!!
Best tutorial on rolls on the Web! Thank you!
Wow! What a compliment! Thank YOU, David, so glad you enjoyed!
This is so great thank you. I needed this bad. Im a long time self taught amercanish fiddle player and my rolls are ponderous!
You are very welcome, Emmet! Love the americanish description :D.
Sweetie U Rock!
aww, you're the sweet one, Kay! Thank you!
My current tune- The Sporting Pitchfork - has 3 rolls as the first 3 notes - F#EF#- so I reckon I'll be rolling a lot in practice and wondering if the tune will ever kick off! 🎶🤣🎻
Hi Sing Me friend! Hope you're well 😄 That's a lot of rolling!
Hi Hannah pretty cool exercises . I'm not a fiddle player but a 10 String Irish Cittern player
I came across Essential Guide to Irish Flute and Tin Whistle by Grey Larsen many yrs ago
I figure out how to flat pick short , long rolls , short & long cranns I got pretty good it.
I didn't try double cut rolls yet. One of the ways I practices doing scales with ornaments like short & long rolls
Irish players would say Tips & Cuts /classical players would say grace notes all they are pull off & hammer on done on top of the root note. I seen irish flatpicker books got some wired way picking all the notes and jumping strings for the long rolls total potted I say. Long roll you got triplets with 2 grace notes on top of second & 3rd note. Pull off & Hammer on on to the root note like D it's very easy.
Grey Larsen in his book got really good exercises one can apply his ideas to any instrument.
I'm buying a Irish Button Box next week and I'm going to figures a way to do Long Cranns on the box
If I master that all other ornaments is easy maybe even the double cut rolls ?
THUMBS UP HANNAH :)
Thank you!! This is great, I love hearing about how other instruments play the roll -- amazing how it varies! Will have to check out that book for sure.

From the description and the sound, a roll reminds me of a "trill" that you can do on guitar. It does seem more difficult because you are bowing instead of strumming (not to mention how you must hold the violin at your neck). Thanks for making this video!
Please tel me your bow and resin preferences!!!
Hola Hannah. Yo estoy aprendiendo violín. No logró tener agilidad en los dedos. Yo quiero hacer música irlandesa. Esto me serviría?
Hola Diego! Puedo ayudar, pero no hablo/escribo español muy bien. ¿Usas ejercicios de fortalecimiento de los dedos?
Do u do online lessons?
I sure do! More details at hannahharrisceol.com/lessons. If you like the lesson model I offer, let's hop on a call and chat more!
And on open's strings?
Great question! It's not a "true" roll, but I like to play a descending triplet all on one bow (third finger-first finger-open) to create a similar sound to the 5 note roll when it comes to open strings.
It is great but not enough volume.
Thank you so much for the feedback, Bart! You're right, I need to get a new USB microphone sooner rather than later :D
