Fire on the Mountain- bluegrass/ old time fiddle lesson

Fire on the Mountain is a fast and flashy bluegrass/old time tune. In this fiddle lesson I teach the two parts and the two bar tag ending. I make suggestions for bowing to allow this to be played fast. I use on-screen music throughout, and a free pdf copy of the Fire on the Mountain sheet music is available to subscribers. There are lots more old time and bluegrass fiddle tutorials elsewhere on The Fiddle Channel.

You've explained the bowing well. Thanks Chris. ;-)

Hey Chris, that's a really good bowing you got there! I just tried it. (at 02'06)

[@TheFiddleChannel]

Glad you liked that!

[@oakleycates8090]

thanks. I just started playing the fiddle and Im really enjoying it. I was wondering if you could do a compilation of the best beginner songs to learn?

[@TheFiddleChannel]

Hi Oakley. Good idea, I'll give it some thought!

I think that "tag" is meant for the very end.
