Bowing workshop

Hi, everyone. I taught a fiddle bowing workshop at the 2017 Indiana Fiddlers’ Gathering a few days ago, and I thought it might be good to give it a recap in a blog post.

It’s been a while

Hello. I’ve not posted in a while. There are a few reasons for this.

Fiddly things, piano things

Clifftop recap (which means fiddle videos), and then a bunch of piano tunes. Sorry about the month-and-a-half-long radio silence—sometimes life just happens.

More tunes

A new tune, an old favorite, and a medley. And a nerd rant.

Playing music for contra dances

Music, and then contra dance music.

Some favorites, and fourth-based harmonies

Another tune, a cover of sorts, and some chord ideas.

More jazz and things

Three tunes today—almost a half hour of original content. I’ve been having trouble coming up with good recordings, so some tunes got stacked up.
