WildWaterTV does a great job recording. I am a big fan of Jed Mugford. I have to say, he has to be my biggest inspiration playing the violin. Jed is in my opinion, a master at playing airs and slow pieces full of heart and emotion. (Which I love listening to and playing. -- well trying to play, since I am new to violin. ) And Mikk Skinner, very beautiful guitar playing. The instruments melded perfectly and you two played it amazingly. Bravo!
Where can i find more music like this, slow fiddle ballads. I was in a hotel bar in Portree last year and there was a man and a woman on the fiddle. She played such lovely slow ballads i could have cried and married her too.
'slow fiddle ballads' if you search the music term 'Slow Air Fiddle' you'll find what you're looking for :). The correct term for this is 'Slow Air' or sometimes spelt 'Slow Ayre'
Wow, beautifull rendition! "Jock o' Hazeldean" aka "John of Hazelgreen" is a fiddle variant of the old Scottish ballad anthologized by Francis James Child as ballad 293. Wikipedia has a good summary of its origins. You can find sheet music and a backing track for it here: musescore.com/user/643986/scores/5403178
Anyone know where to find the fiddle sheet music? My son has a talent contest in a few months and would love to play this with him....such a beautiful piece and a perfect rendition. Very well played, and full of emotion.
Here's a link to lyrics and some basic info. It's one of the oldest songs that I sing, and one of the loveliest. www.rampantscotland.com/songs/blsongs_hazeldean.htm
Thank you! Such a beautiful tune by two very gifted musicians.
I play this for my cows on the tinwhistle, they seem to like it... a moving piece

Really, really nice. Thank you! One of my favourites!
my favorite rendition by far. Others play it too fast and without much feeling, it seems to me.
Louie Neira Common fault that I am afraid. A lot of these tunes are the better for a bit of moderation
