I appreciate your work! I send all my students who are interested in authentic fiddling to your channel! I have one student getting ready for a local fiddling competition in her age group this summer and sent her to your channel. I really like how you teach the tunes. You do small groups of notes, repeated, then add complexity. If we can teach students to practice correctly, they can play whatever they want! You're one of a kind! Many thanks!
OMG I LOVE ITTTTT....i love violin so much, i wanna start learning how to play with it, but i think its verrry hard and its kind of too late to start taking classes now :(
I see that my reply is six years late, but I'll tell you one thing I heard somewhere: It's too late when you're six foot under, not before. If you are grown up you'll probably not going to be a master fiddler if you start now, but you may be able to play not too difficult tunes and have them sound nice if you practice hard. That, and finding a good teacher. And, if you're left handed like me, do find a left-handed fiddle. There's a reason why right-handed people chose to use their dominant hand for the bow when the first bowed instruments were invented.
I just ordered this and... you're a good teacher but YOUR BOWING ISN'T SYNCHRONISED TO THE NOTES ON YOUR FULL BODY SCREEN (makes it kinda hard to understand the bowing :( ...)

Great working and God bless now ---------✝
Yes thank you incredible genius
Merci +++ pour ces petits bijoux !!!! :O)
Why do so many fiddle players have a ton of rosin all over their instrument? Do they tend to use more than classical players?
The fiddlers don't clean it off.
Perfection! :)

I started when I was 69! Loving it!

the greatest success that I have had was by following the Ajana music lessons (just google it) without a doubt the best method that I have ever tried.
