Product Description
Comb-bound fiddle instruction book and CD.
Fiddling is an honored American tradition. Learning to play the fiddle is an exciting experience filled with discovery, surprises, and personal satisfaction.
This is a wonderful beginning fiddle lessons instruction book for any beginner who wants to learn how to play fiddle.
It is also an engaging supplementary basic fiddle tunes book for early intermediate fiddlers and violinists.
For beginners, the emphasis is on learning to play entire fiddle tunes as quickly as possible.
This book is suitable for all ages.
- Tablature for beginners and fiddlers who don't read music.
- Standard notation for fiddlers who can read music.
- Helpful guide to fundamentals, photos, and diagrams included for absolute beginners.
- A varied selection of traditional fiddle tunes.
- Chord symbols are included.
- Comb bound book opens flat for ease of use.
- Stereo CD includes tuning notes, demonstration of important techniques, guitar accompaniment, and EVERY SONG!
The introductory section discusses the parts of the fiddle and bow, how to hold the fiddle and bow, tuning, required equipment, how to read tablature, and everything needed to start playing tunes right away.
This book is not a note-reading method. However, the songs do become progressively more challenging. It is not a dumbed-down book where every song is arranged at the first-week level.
Beginners who wish to learn to read music while learning to play country fiddle are referred to Larry McCabe's excellent How to Play Fiddle method book.
Early intermediate fiddlers will find some very nice arrangements here.
