I am working on using the shuffle in Arkansas Traveller and happened to find this video. It was perfect, thank you.

Thanks Lauren, I just happen to be working on adding shuffles in the relatively easy tune of Old Joe Clark. I'm using the traditional shuffle on the half notes and for the single whole note that's in the version I'm working with I'm adding in two shuffles. It's not as easy as I'd like it to be, but it's all part of learning.

Adding the shuffle definitely makes the tune sound more “fiddley” or is it “fiddly” LOL! I will have to get out my sheet music for Arkansas Traveler and try adding the shuffle in with double stops. Thanks for this great tip!

Ok - just to wrap my brain around it . We can add this shuffle rhythm pattern to notes that are longer than a quarter note ? Like if we are hanging on a note we can use it .. but we aren’t hitting melody notes with that quick double note rhythm

Thanks for another great lesson, I use kind of a variation of this on Irish tunes like The Mountain Road with the accent on the downbeat. Still struggling a bit with bow hold, I find that my bowhold starts off ok but slips out of position if that makes sense?

Neat! That’s another great way to use the shuffle. Yes... bow holds can be tricky business. Good luck to you, Bob! 🎻

My issue is when to introduce double stops in the tune. (Only been playing fiddle since Jan 2021) If I'm being honest I think when I add double stops i try to play it through out the whole tune, which muddys the melody. Correct me if im wrong, but it looks like you played them on down beats. When do I know when and when not to play double stops? Great lesson by the way
@TheTuneProject3 жыл бұрын
Hey Michael - There are many different ways to incorporate double stops into a tune, none of which are “incorrect”, but some might sound a little better than others. In the example in this video I played double stops on the off beats or the “and”, but you could just as easily play them on the down beats or all the way through. It really depends on the tune & what your ear prefers. I might dedicate a whole video to this topic so I can further explain it! Hope that helps in the meantime though.
