  • hi that is very sweet can i get you to send me them tunes on tape i will cover the cost as its hard to get tunes like that in ireland can you let me know thanks

  • that was the same chair Lori Watson sat in when she played my favorite song Scottish Borders fiddle!!!! i love her fiddle playing!

  • ahhhhh the rosin O.O needs to be wiped. but amazing if i do say so myself

  • I think Jenna was a little younger then and has progressed and more matured and traditional style music and tunes.

    She is indeed is the "princess" of modern and traditional Scottish music.....have you heard her do Hector the Hero.....just superb.

  • Well, that's it. I'm done. I got my new fiddle yesterday and today I got a few sueaky scratching noises out of it. I was all ready to go pro until I saw this.

  • Don't worry about how good other players are. Learn to play a few simple tunes you like. It's very satisfying.

  • Just Keep Playing. I started 3 years ago and I LOVE it. I agree with mongorich below. ;-) Good luck have fun....

  • hahaha :) funny as :)

  • I love it! Unlike scottmumby:)

  • her left hand is like a spider moving up and down the neck of the fiddle

  • I think "teaching" is probably a misnomer...

  • I just love watching how her arm moves...

  • Love her new album "Laughing Girl" its amazing! This tune is soo hard to play aswell, dont have a clue how she can play it so fast!! (im guessing practise haha) But she plays it magicly!!

  • Fast but lifeless.

    WAY off on some of the high notes.

    Slow down girl, it's music, not a race.

  • i agree. too much of this going on. mon the traditions.

  • Lovely flexible bowing - really impressive - though the top[ note on the E string is always flat!

  • OMG ii love Jenna Reid, check out her album The Laughing Girl. Pure mindblowing shtuff =]

  • Brilliant!

  • huge talent + years of practice = this!

  • fast!

  • This is a great style Jenna!! I'll have to practice up alot before I go back over to Scotland with my fiddle!! My playin is in shambles these days, but a good work out for a few months would improve it immencely I hope. Keep up the great playing and if you can check out my rough-around-the-edges playing...hope you don't mind a wee bit of comedy thrown in too.

  • cutie

  • Shetland style rocks! lol the lady looks like Rachel Weisz.

  • wozzers!!!! thats fast!

  • I like Shetland Fiddlers because they really get after it like we do down here.

  • wonder if she plays with a group

  • I dont think any of u no what ur talkin about. she's amazing!!! like to see u try play that tune, its pretty nails tbh.

  • I don't think it sounds rushed at all, I think it sounds beautiful just the way she's playing it. I just wish I could play that well!

  • OMG!! I can't see her arm moving eiather.. Your Amazing!

    It looks like a robot..* hehehe* Greeat Job!

    Jamie =)

  • i think this girl must have supernatural powers or something because her arms move faster than i can see!!

  • 非常厉害啊

  • Great. Just slow it down a little.

  • Ach behave, if you think she's playing it quickly here you should hear the version on her solo CD - it's a "Hurricane" right enough!

  • he's talking through the shetland part of his body?

  • A bit rushed

  • what part of the body are you talking through?

  • You might have a point - but it is called 'The Hurricane' so that indicates speed, no? JSS was no slouch either at times (OK he had to rush to make sure it all fitted on the recording, but still...)

  • superáááá

  • very very gud

  • ah....bonnie highland fiddlers....

  • shetland actually

  • Smart girl.

  • jeez. how much is a plane ticket to scotland? broads are gorgeous. whoa

  • id like to find a lady like that one day

  • Very Nice. Where can I get a cd or mp3????

  • saw you in portree afew weeks ago and thought you were amazing, hope your tour with julie is going well

  • I like your vid clip and I've rated it as awesome. Please check out my video clip of some very rare 1934 tobacco cards of old and ethnic musical instruments.

  • damn!!

    you are a hell of a player

    or should i say musician

    god!!

    your performance brought tears to my eyes

  • I wish i had the notes for that tune...

  • Well i prefer it played by Natalie MacMaster

  • meh

  • Pretty Darned cool!!!

  • Wow!

  • Jenna, that is really great! Would love to hear more from you. I had the oportunity to hear Colyn Fischer play that tune as part of his set at the last 2 Jink and Diddle Sessions I attended. It is in the set he played to win the US Scottish Fiddle Championship for the last 2 years. He is truly amazing. I really like those fast runs at the top, but I could never do them even near that speed...

  • You can hear Jenna on CDs by Dochas or Filska, as well as on her solo album, "With Silver And All".

  • Beautiful, simply beautiful!
