Fiddle Lesson with George Jackson - The Old North Woods From Bela Fleck's My Bluegrass Heart

Support fiddle lessons with George Jackson on Patreon at / georgejackson
Bela Fleck put out a new bluegrass record in 2021 and to celebrate this amazing release I thought I'd teach you one of the tunes that I've been really enjoying from it, it's the second track called "The Old North Woods". It's a great medium tempo tune that really has a sound reminiscent of old bluegrass tunes from the likes of Bill Monroe along with some gorgeous triple fiddles by Michael Cleveland, Stuart Duncan and Andy Leftwich. This lesson goes over the melody and we'll take a look at the twin fiddle harmony in the follow up lesson available on Patreon. Music notation available on Patreon.

So glad I found you and this video. This is one of my favorite tunes from this album. Great tutorial. Been a lifelong classical violinist, but I've been wanting to dive into fiddle playing. I think I'll join your Patreon. Thanks!
