I played this tune on my low whistle whilst sitting on the rocks on Inis Oirr. fond memories, lovely tune.

[@Time.Space.Heal.]

As I try to learn the fiddle/violin…I want to emulate your style! Great watch as always!

[@PIckledeggilkley]

I love listening to you play - do you ever gig in Yorkshire ? I’ve learnt this by ear listening to you but your bow control is something I can only dream off !

[@nancycouch357]

So good.

Wonderful!

Beautifully played. Love the little decorations. Would like to join :) 🎻

I can see why some would get confused on the time with that little stutter step at the end of the 3rd measure of the A part. Curious to see what that would like on paper.

[@marybrunart]

Really a lovely tune this one. It is a waltz? Very lovely style is your, thanks for sharing Kevin.

[@KevinLeesMusic]

It is a waltz, usually played on the slower side

Beautiful. I was wondering if you'd be willing to break down some of the techniques/ornamentation you're using in Inisheer here. I'm just starting out on the fiddle a few weeks ago and love the way this sounds. I notice some things like the trills are maybe a kind of hammer on/pull off? I've learned a slow stripped down version of this melody but I'm eager to try to flesh it out more fully. But a lot escapes me from this video even when I slow it down! Do you have a course or online lessons?

[@eamonmaguire9962]

Do you teach the fiddle .lovely

[@FrontRoomProductionsanimation]

Could you recommend a shoulder rest to use?

[@KevinLeesMusic]

I use one called Everest, it is the comfiest i've tried!

[@liambinley]

Is this in 3/4? Don’t know if I’m in just being really thick but I can’t work it out!

[@liambinley]

Just looked it up, it is in 3/4, my ears weren’t deceiving me!! 😂

[@KevinLeesMusic]

Indeed!

[@iaingriffiths6393]

Absolutely love this. Could I ask what strings you are using? Previously you appeared to be using Eva Pirazzi's?

[@KevinLeesMusic]

I generally use Evah Pirazzis or Larsen Virtuosos. I've recently used Larsen Cannone Soloist and enjoyed them.

[@iaingriffiths6393]

@@KevinLeesMusic Thank you for replying. I have been thinking of trying Eva Pirazzi's and I do like your tone.
