Casey Willis started the topic Niall Murphy Lessons in the forum Fiddle Lesson Forum 7 years, 3 months ago
Howdy, fiddlers!
We published Niall Murphy’s first lesson on the site today. Instead of waiting to launch him as instructor until we have 10 or so produced (as we have with prior new instructor launches), we decided to release Niall’s lessons individually so you can get a head start on some new tunes. The only thing to note is that Niall refers…[Read more]

Hi, Casey,
I personally haven’t bought a CD in years. Partly due to the fact that (at least for me) I don’t have the money to, but also you can listen to pretty much everything online for free now. plus if you want to pay for sites like Spotify, they are so cheap for what you get in return. It’s sad, but I think for most people, CDs are a bit of…[Read more]

I sometimes buy a CD when I attend a live performance or concert, or when I go to a workshop that I have enjoyed. But money is tight and Youtube provides most of my listening these days.

Howdy, FV folks. I need some input…
Does anyone still buy physical audio CDs? I’ve had a few requests for my last solo album recently (out of print)…I’m considering reordering, but I don’t know if people even buy CDs anymore…
I thought at the least, it might be a good idea to publish a page here on the site that linked to the various…[Read more]

Yes, Great stuff. I’ve pretty much got it, but now comes the fun part…smoothing in out! Love those moving internal harmonies in the chords. That’s exactly what’s been missing from my playing. Very exciting to be doing it. Thanks.

You’re absolutely correct, the 7 note is right for that F# chord…I think I was thinking about the Bb note being the major third in the F# scale…forgot to mention the 7 note…and also to write it in the sheet music!!
Good catch, sir. Sounds like you’re really diving in. Good stuff!!

Hi Casey,
At the beginning of the 2nd part of the advanced melody, you mention that the guitar needs to play an F#MAJ chord after the D. Shouldn’t that be an F#7, which would use the open E?

Thanks for chiming in, Oliver. That might be something to look at…there are so many distribution models out there right now!!! I’ll keep my eyes peeled for any plug-n-play type app options…

Hi Casey and Jeff,
This is something that would be useful for me too as I am a bit Nomadic and don’t always have the Internet available. I completely understand that its difficult because files are so easily copied and shared nowadays. But something I just thought could work (and I’m no expert at all, so wouldn’t know how to go about it or if it…[Read more]

Hi, Jeff.
First off, welcome…thanks for signing up!
I totally understand the request…our site is set up for content to be accessed via internet, and you’d like to be able to download off-line copies of the videos to work on when not connected. We looked at the direct download option when we designed the site but ended up not going that…[Read more]

Hi All, I”m a new subscriber and really enjoying this site.
Is it possible to download the videos to an ipad so I can practice when at a location that doesn’t have an internet or wifi connection?

Hi, Michele. Great question…Niall is currently on tour in Australia, and it may be some time before he’s able to review lessons.
I would hope we would start publishing the first of his lessons in a few weeks…I might publish them as they are finished instead of saving up a bunch like I did with Andre. Anyhow, that’s the scoop.
If you…[Read more]
