✨ 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!

The acoustics in that room are amazing! Is that an old church hall? Thanks for your lovely work 🎻

How come your fiddle sounds so ambient and ‘reverby’? Mine sounds like a scratchy harsh and loud version. 😝 is it the room you are in - or is it the refined way you are playing the instrument?
