  • great song i play fiddle my self but i am finding it difficult to get g string notes right any suggestions that could help

  • @piggynoogla I'd suggest looking up some of the instructional videos on YouTube, or perhaps see if your local public library has any instructional DVD's available for violin or fiddle.

  • thankyou!! great playing! had tendonitis for 7 months now and cant play ma fiddle;.

    so its a joy to hear great players like yourself, cheers

  • I had tendonitis in shoulder a couple of years ago. No fun, that. Glad to hear you like the music, and get well soon!

  • Mr Bergman

    I think this is my favorite of all your videos. Thanks.

    (Would you consider giving lessons to a great fan from Madison, WI?)

  • Hello and thanks for your comment. As far as lessons go, I might just recommend watching a variety of fiddle videos. Search this tune in YouTube and you'll find many different styles. Also, your public library may have instructional DVD's or videos for fiddle/violin.

  • You did so well! The only thing I might add to a critique is to emphasize your bow stroke and dynamics! Good job.

  • I love it. This is fun to play and so addictive. I never want to stop.

  • thanxz, its in my elbow and my hand. so it does get better, phew. yeh its very painful isnt it. i guess i overplayed or something. i got to grade 5 after 13 lessons and got over zealous thinking i could do more than i could, practised too much, i think. glad your better now and giving so much joy to others with your playing, god bless

    .

  • Fantastic! I'm trying to learn fiddle and watching someone as good as you is truly motivational! I'm only learning just for the fun of playing, but if I could ever get even half as good as you are, I'd be happy! Thanks for posting!

  • Super.

  • Do buckskin reel!
