✨ Played by Liz Faiella on fiddle and Dan Faiella on guitar ✨
Please note that I’m a folk musician and fiddler, and I don’t consider myself a classical violinist. In my experience of the folk tradition, techniques tend to be somewhat informal, variable, and flexible, so take what I say with a grain of salt :) My thoughts on fiddling are based on my own personal musical experience. If you’re looking for more formal violin technique and instruction, there are other resources out there that are geared towards that!
These videos are not intended as a substitute for the advice of a medical professional (when it comes to any thoughts on techniques such as posture, hand placement, etc).
Happy fiddling, friends!

Thank-you so much for this video. I really enjoyed the song and was able to learn it as well. Thanks again Liz.

I stumbled upon your lesson today. After severe frostbite on all my fingers from racing on the Iditarod Trail I haven't play for years. You inspired me. So good to be playing this tune again. Thank you so much.

Thank YOU! 🥰 It's about time I added this to my rep...My fiddlers always had it in their back pocket, and I just thumped away on bodhran, or whistle...Now I can multi-track I with guitar! YAY! 😀

This came up on my recommended, after I was just playing some Irish jigs and reels. Spooky! Have subscribed as I'll be coming back to this to play it. Thanks for the great video !

I heard this tune and thought 'oh yea, I could learn that' but it's proving to be a very difficult one to get right.

You showed excellent didactic and playing ability. I might go purchase a plastic violin from ALDI and learn it in the next several days for our coming local annual fiddler's convention . Musicians come to it from all over Australia . Unfortunately I lost all my old violins in a fire . This one all falls into place at 3:45 . Thanks.

I will have to add to the previous comment by chrisbooth2246 you are by far the best violin teacher I have come across. Your approach to everything you do breathtaking. I really love your channel.

Your fun approach combined with such clear explanation and smooth bowing makes for the perfect combination in teaching. In my opinion you are the best out there! Genuinely considering the patreon approach, although I have an existing list of fiddle tunes that I want to take to the next level so not sure if via patreon subscription I can influence your choice of tunes that you create content for?

Liz, I LOVE your tutorials! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise with us. Plus, you're absolutely adorable. : ) I notice you hold the bow higher up the stick than a traditional bow hold. Why is this and when is it appropriate to do so?
@philip5940 Жыл бұрын
It seems appropriate for fiddle style playing to help develop that pulsating rhythm more easily . There's a noticable difference in feel and I've observed violinists holding their bows fiddle style when playing Four Seasons too .

How do you add the “swing” to the song? When you play it slowly you don’t have it but at the beginning you play it with the swing. Idk how to add that

I ❤️ your fiddle!! Who's the maker? 🤔 Is it old? Italian or French? 1850s?

I really like playing Drowsy Maggie very fast. It’s meant to be played fast in my opinion.

Try clipping a short piece of the lesson. Its one of the utube functions below. Works well for me😊

Is your fiddle a Neuner Hornsteiner?
@LizFaiellaMusic 26 күн бұрын
It's not! It's an old factory-made fiddle from France, apparently.
