A lovely sound here. Mike has clearly mastered his instrument & genre. What I particularly like here is the close-up shots of Mike playing & working his instrument. The close-ups ably demonstrate just why so much practice is needed to get it right. Like all masters of their craft, Mike puts out a sound which seems 'easy' to achieve .. but of course which is really only ever reached after long, long time & effort input, in order to secure this elite level of skill & mastery. Great posting !!

When he started Brushy Fork of John's Creek, I was hearing the spirit and style of Art Stamper in there. And for me, it doesn't get any better than that. Some play more notes, nobody played 'em sweeter.

Keep it up, Mike. Sounds great as usual. One of these days I'll bring my old 3/4 fiddle over and see if you can saw a good tune out of it. I can't! (Been mentioning that for a long time!) - a neighbor from down the road a mile.

Yes, hearing fiddle-music does something to one, down-inside. As Mr. Bryant says, there's an unidentifiable, ancient or primal quality to the sound that causes a moving, emotional-reaction, which is quite soul-stirring. The only other instrument that has this effect, I think, at least on me, is the cello. There's almost-nothing so satisfying as the deep, stirring sounds of a cello.

@sugarbear1959 I wish he still lived in Macon, so he could teach me!

the difference between classical and this music is, the rawer the better. a fiddler needs a harsh dominating tone.

How can some people do this? I can't even play the violin that well. I wish I can learn fiddling because it seems to be a joyful music to produce. So I have to start playing 6 hours a day huh? I'll try. Thanks for the inspiration.
