Glad I found your channel. You've shown me that it doesn't really matter how you hold the bow or if your left wrist isn't straight you can still produce amazing music! Yee haw from Australia 🇦🇺

His creativity and originality reminds me of Ashley Macisaac. That fiddle is an extension of his body, not an instrument 💪🎻

Greetings Mack, from a fellow Fiddler. Most of my playing involves Irish Tunes, but I do some Folk. Can I ask you a question? How do you play so fast? Specifically, left-hand technique on the fingerboard. Do you have any tips for Fiddlers who want to increase their playing speed? I agree with the Aussie who commented earlier. Bow technique alone does not make a good Fiddler.

Hey there, just wanted to let you know this isn't his personal channel, just a recording but he has a duo called The High Quadra Ramblers now. I think the folk fiddle hold helps a lot. It seems like it gives you more flexibility in the fingers because you're resting on your wrist, and you can focus on the rhythym bowing aswell. Everything is in first position mostly.

Ohmygod. He's on the Drive. My old east end Vancouver hood. The ghost of my earlier self had already long departed, some 18 years hence. Used to play up and down that street. La Quena. Broadway Express. And some other joint in between whose name I can't remember. Never busked (except one time only outside an LCBO down in the West End.) I was really paying attention to that left-hand finger pluck this time around. The bow looks a bit healthier too. Fantastic as always.

When playing the fiddle is the bowing hand always past the handle bottom? I dunno I just started playing violin last year

Some Old time fiddlers hold it that way. What ever works for you.
@ashleyalexandermorris96453 жыл бұрын
I know these are VERY old comments but for anyone wondering about it there’s a great book called Old-Time Fiddle for the Complete Ignoramus by Wayne Erbsen that is a wonderful resource for learning about the different ways people played fiddles such as bow hand placement, where they hold it on their bodies, and how they hold the violin with their left hand. You’ll notice Mack rests almost his whole hand against the neck with his left hand which is a common fiddler hold that’ll get you frowns from a classical violinist.
