bio.site/RhysJones
This is the fourth of a new video series, teaching you how I play the standard tunes of old-time fiddling. I'll play each tune up to speed, and then post a second video demonstrating specifics. If you have questions, leave them in the comments and I'll try to answer!
Soldier's Joy is the first tune I learned when I was 6 years old, and I still play it almost every time I pick up the fiddle. It is my favorite!

SO much of fiddling is the bowing, and I very much appreciate these lovely patient lessons. Sincere thanks from a violinist trying to become a fiddler

1st tune I learned when I was 24. Now I like doing variations. Thanks for next variation.

Wow! I'm so happy I stumbled over your channel! It looks and sounds amazing how you control the bow and don't use a shoulder or chin rest. Looking forward to going through all your material on youtube. Please, keep posting more amazing stuff! Cheers!

I’m so glad you’re inspired! I love playing without chin and shoulder rest - apparently I’m in good company with a large number of Baroque performers, but I think the violin just sounds better when it is unencumbered. I don’t even use fine tuners - it’s a naked fiddle.

Great videos. Who made your fiddle/violin?

Thank you! My fiddle was made by Bronek Cisson, a Polish maker living in Chicago who makes violins out of the workshop of William Harris Lee.
