When will we see the tutorials from Naill?

I’ve used the Prim mediums for years. Before that I used Pirastro Chromcor but found that the G started to “wow” when I’d dig in a little bit on it. Nothing worse than a wowing G string…

Awesome, Patti!!

I can’t wait to get you to autograph me a copy…perhaps your next recording session…

Folks – you can’t go wrong with this new album from Patti…great stuff!!!

For sure, Patti. Still have that set on, and they seem to have a bit more projection than the mediums…but I think I need to play some more of your tunes to make sure!!!

Remind me what strings you use?

How did you end up liking the heavy gauge Prims? I’ve been using the mediums forever, but am curious.

Hi, Lassoayr. Yeah, Kevin is no longer in the studio, but he seems to turn up like a bad apple round these parts so I bet he’ll be back to record later this year or in 2019. I’ll add that tune to his running request list, and he might choose to record it next time. Thanks for the suggestion!

All the best!!

Hi Casey Thanks for the new content. There will be some happy FV Scottish Fiddlers licking their fiddle chops to get some new tunes from Hanneke and excitement continues to ramp up for Niall Murphy’s debut. Cheers to all and here is to more fiddling in 2018. Roland

Hi, UncleTed.

Not dreaming…that lesson is currently in review by Hanneke. Should be published soon, sir! Then maybe a few more from existing instructors before we push to get Niall Murphy’s first batch of lessons published!!

Hi, Casey. Completely understand you wanting someone emersed in the genre to teach, the passion that comes through with players like that is always very inspiring, it would also be inkeeping with the website so far and the superb quality of the lessons you’ve already produced. Having said that, I can’t imagine anyone would object to you teaching…[Read more]

Great thread, Oliver. Merry Christmas to all! So many great tunes to choose from!!! I don’t know how I’d pick a favorite…How about something non-fiddle…for folks not aware of this talented man, enjoy:

Hi, Oliver. You’ve hit upon one of the areas I plan to expand this site, sir. I was in talks with an amazing bluegrass player to see if he was interested in joining up on the site…that fell through for now, but I’m interested in working with someone…

I think I’d be able to tackle a number of standard bluegrass fiddle tunes, but I don’t…[Read more]

Hi, Rick. I’m really glad to hear that feedback. Yep – we have a ton of additional lessons from Andre to publish. We also have a new instructor to publish, and then I’ll be producing new lessons from each instructor in turn throughout 2018.

I’ll add that reel onto his request list for his next session…

Cheers!

Hi FV Members, Thank you Oliver for chiming in a Merry Christmas to all and Sabrina a wonderful gift to all with that beautiful recording of Natalie and Yo Yo Ma. Amazing players. And hey Rick G83, is the Old Joe you play a Oldtime tune in C or is it another? I love that tune that & learned it many years ago in Weiser Idaho at the National Fiddle…[Read more]

Happy Holidays Oliver! I love to play a medley of Christmas in Killarney and Old Joe’s for my father in law. I gifted him a 22 year old fiddle for XMAS, hopefully we’ll be a duo next year 😉

I am in Eastern Ontario, if I lived closer to Andre I would seek him out as a private instructor. In my humble opinion new content from him is worth the price of my membership alone. Reel a Toto is one i’d love to have added for sure.
