[@1stfiddlerman]

😁

[@lastestefy4796]

learning slurs with La Vita è bella and improvising on lovely bossa nova backtracks!! Your tutorials were what I needed, amongst the other things, bcoz scales can get boring and these livens things up!!!!

[@1stfiddlerman]

I think that fast is good as long as you keep in control.

[@1stfiddlerman]

Nice to hear. :)

Hey Fiddlerman, I'm not a fiddler but just discovered and love your channel. This video reminded me of Don "Sugarcane" Harris, one of the best blues violinists I've ever heard. He was on a couple of earlier Zappa albums (where i discovered him), "Weasels Ripped My Flesh" and "Burnt Weeny Sandwich".

[@1stfiddlerman]

twinsmm1 Thanks. I'll check out Don "Sugarcane" Harris when I get a chance. :)

[@twinsmm1]

Fiddlerman Thanks for the reply. Particularly "Directly from My Heart to You" on "Weasels Ripped My Flesh". ...figured i'd be more specific, as for some people, zappa is an acquired taste.

[@1stfiddlerman]

twinsmm1 I like it. :)

[@1stfiddlerman]

@leighann19907 - Thanks for pointing this out. I fixed it.

[@1stfiddlerman]

@seconen33 - LOL, thanks, I've heard that a few times.

[@lastestefy4796]

your videos are something fresh and reviving!! I'm doing the scales right now (I wasn't saying ur scales are boring but the classical ones everybody has to do when studying music..been there with guitar and piano...but I'm afraid I'll get myself into trouble (muscle-and techique-wise..u know what I mean?? I got the violin on March 6 and I am already doing Mull of Kyntire and all the 1 and 2 blues lessons...just so impatient...will that kill???

[@CaballeroDeLos5A]

What is the guitar track that plays in the background?

[@1stfiddlerman]

You can find it here. Use it off my site or download it. fiddlerman.com/tutorials/blues/

[@CaballeroDeLos5A]

Thank you very much. I'm violinist and I'm going to improvise blues, and I like this backing track.

[@1stfiddlerman]

Enjoy it!

[@Ben-gu6zh]

What was the name of your background soundtrack, please? It's awesome to practise.

[@1stfiddlerman]

You are welcome :-)

[@1stfiddlerman]

I only have one thing and it's on Fiddlerman. com Ask your questions on Fiddlerman. com/forum and I'm sure someone will have some suggestions. Very helpful members there.

[@alzbetademcakova8545]

What the name is this song.sorry of my English :D

[@1stfiddlerman]

It's not a piece. It's improvisation. :) I was trying to demonstrate that you don't necessarily need so many notes to play. Your English is great.

[@alzbetademcakova8545]

Thank you :)

[@chantelleyan5573]

Hiii I was wondering where did you find the blues backing track which was playing in the background of the video?? thanks:)

[@sawekduda1941]

' juuuuuujuuuuuiuhuy

[@leighann19907]

the link doesnt work :(

[@lastestefy4796]

oh yes, of course, I also do my scales diligently/boringly....and try to get the clearest sound as possible from each string..but I have the bad habit of tampering with pegs, bridge etc all the time when I sense I'm not tuned (I use my keyboard for tuning) .and often mess it all up!! I'm seeing my teacher (I see him randomly ,.(() maybe tomorrow and will get him to fix things for me..

[@NostalgiaOfRock]

wtf ?....fucking awsome....you are the beeeeest....that's what i was looking for....thanks man..thanks

[@Jacksonsilitonga]

Indonesia

[@1stfiddlerman]

Welcome. 😁 I actually used to buy a lot of green coffee beans from Indonesia. Great flavors.

[@Jacksonsilitonga]

I live in Indonesia I understand

[@1stfiddlerman]

You probably should. I get so busy that I am not doing all the videos that I have in mind and on my to do list. :-(

[@1stfiddlerman]

There is a lot to think about. LOL Good luck with getting your fittings working well so that you don't have to waste time on that.

[@1stfiddlerman]

@FireIwithoutIwire - LOL

[@rgerber]

y'know, creative music is so simple, yet popular music is boring as hell in every public place you get that wash of music that makes you dizzy and most common people will just say that

[@robviolin1]

If I was going to teach people how to play the Blues, I would teach them the Blues Scale: Tonic, minor 3rd, major 3rd, 4th, flat 5, 5th, and the 7th Or in the key of "C" it is - C, Eb, E, F, F# or Gb, G, Bb

[@lastestefy4796]
