Tagged: bowing, technique
Hello,
My former fiddle teacher had me practice bowing with two and three notes slurs on a down bow—which he’d teach as I learned the tune.
I can hear the slurs in Roll Out the Barrel, but is there a rule?
How can I use the videos to learn this bowing technique? Thank you!
Kevin Burke is a wealth of knowledge, and if you haven’t yet seen all of his technique tutorials, I would recommend checking them out: https://www.fiddlevideo.com/category/fiddle-technique-fiddle-lessons/irish-fiddling-techniqes/. I bet that the bowing answers you seek are lightly hidden.
