I really like how you explain the mechanics as well as demonstrate how to play the triplets. Wagging the dog is a great way to explain the differences in the bow control and I might have missed it otherwise. Great! Thank you very much for posting this.

thank you a lot bruce, what brand of string are u using? thank you!
-
I wonder, do you absolutely HAVE to start the triplet on a downbow (as Bruce suggests)... or can an experienced player do triplets either on a downbow or an upbow? Anyway, great video, found it very useful.

Thanks Bruce, very helpful.

I had been doing triplets as Down-Up-Down, but the closest sound I can get to matching this video is more like All 3 triplet notes on the Down bow and the up is to prepare for the next triplet. It seems the bow is bouncing to create the more agressive triplet. Is this correct? A 60fps video just isn't enough for this music :)

Thanks for sharing this! I've always wanted to know what the heck that was.

Priceless! Thanks for sharing this. Unusual for a YouTube fiddle tutorial in that it's by someone who can really play and who really knows what he's talking about!
Love your style - this is what Scottish fiddling should sound like!

was that first tune Jenny Dang the Weaver?

Another really helpful video. What are the names of the tunes you play in this?
