    A fiddle player not crashing and crunching the bow into the string like one so often hears. Sounds really nice, well done.

    Oh, how I envy your beautifully relaxed fiddle style, still retaining a nice amount of "oomph", making it toe-tapping and danceable. Nice one! I'll have to bookmark this one.

    I think Mr. Peak fiddler does this one in superb fashion. I could listen to anybody play this one for hours. When I'm stacking my wood pile, the Spire runs thru my head to where I can play it in my mind. I think it's one of my all time favorite fiddle tunes. Of course I play it on my old mando. Been trying to get Baron Collins Hill to teach it, but to no avail, yet. I guess he feels flop ear mule is more important. Cheers, dear young lady -- you've got it very well.

    • @LizFaiellaMusic
      @LizFaiellaMusic  3 года назад

      Aw thank you Robert! I'm a huge fan of Baron's. Maybe I'll start bugging him to do this one too :)

      @@LizFaiellaMusic Oh thanks for the comment. Yeah, I sent Baron the tabs and notation for the Spire back when he lived in Maine. Mentioned to him what a sensational Irish reel it was and since he was teaching great Irish reels, he should teach it to his fans, followers, and viewers. I have learned a lot of what I attempt to play and collect from Baron's teachings. Peak fiddler is another. Fiddle Castro is probably the third. They show the notation, which I like. I find Jason from fiddleHed does fun stuff too. I've been working on the Lonesome Fiddle Blues by Vassar Clements, for mandolin. I don't play fiddle, never have. It's a great tune he composed in 1946 or so. Jason teaches the basic melody which is interesting enough. Cheers, dear friend -- always enjoy your tunes and style. Bob in Montana.

    One of the best fiddle tunes ever and perhaps my favorite. You make it look effortless and carefree and yet, as the other commenter said, the Oomph is there! Love it.

    Hi, I am very impressed by your back step rhythm, I have tried slowly 80 pulse per Quarter note then gradually speed up but as I get quicker the bow gets more jerky on the quick up bows I can't get the relaxed fluidity at your speed which doesn't actually sound fast or rushed, but you are playing fast.

    • @LizFaiellaMusic
      @LizFaiellaMusic  Год назад

      Starting slow and speeding up gradually is key, I think! Hang in there. Sometimes it's just a matter of time. Also playing with groups of people who are good at relaxed playing can help too. I've learned a lot by osmosis :)

    H Liz...greetings form neighbour state-Maine....LOVE your tone and easy bowing style...not rushed yet accurate and easily followed for an 'aspiring" fiddle-player like myself....being originally from Ireland I am used to hearing tunes played "on steroids" ....what equipment do you use for recording your fiddle?.....again thanks and keep the tunes coming

      Hi Frank, thank you so much!! I use a Sony PCM-M10 voice recorder actually (I bought it a long time ago when I thought I'd be a freelance journalist), and then my brother has a camera that I borrow for the video :) I put it all in Garageband to mix it, then put the video and audio together in iMovie. A bit of a laborious and not-high-tech process. But it works! So nice to get your message. And hooray for Maine!! So many of my favorite musicians live there!

      Also, the FIDDLE Channel w/ Chris Hage. More notation, and a good tutorial on how to play it. Again free. Liz does a fine job on this wonderful tune, as do many people. It is probably my all time favorite. It has everything one would need to know about playing most Irish reels. I play these tunes on mandolin. Never would attempt the fiddle but get the same joy from a well tuned mando. Cheers. Bob
