And I just want to say how much FV means to me in this difficult time. I am very fortunate in that I am still healthy and just social isolating up here in Canada. FV is a great distraction and provides joy and a sense of connection to a community of fiddlers. Thank you, please keep the new tunes coming as long as you can, and hoping…[Read more]

I’ve promised myself that if I practice hard and improve I can get myself a 5 string one day. I used to play viola so I miss that C string.

Do you have Andre teaching Maison de Glace (jig) by any chance? Very beautiful tune written by his brother Rejean. Would love to hear Andre play/teach it.

Thanks

Gordon and JJ also have music books to accompany their CDs, which can be ordered at fiddlebooks.com (Gordon’s site). Gordon was recently awarded the Order of Canada for his lifetime work with fiddling – he’s one of our national treasures.

Cheers

Is the “finger view” missing for Lafferty’s basic tutorial, or is it something techy at my end? Hadn’t realized how much I rely on that view for learning (bad – I need to work on learning by ear!) and Kevin teaches this one fairly fast. Love this tune. Thanks

I’ll keep your experience in mind when I get my new hearing aids this week. And I agree – Fiddlevideo is excellent!

Any tips or tricks you’ve learned? I have to buy a new pair and I’m looking for the ones that will make me play perfectly in tune with great tone 😉

Enjoy your workshop. It’s a bit too far to travel down from Smithers, or I’d be there. I love learning the notes for new tunes but I have to really push myself to work on the advanced lessons. So I tend to move on a new tune before I’ve really got a handle on the first. Not ideal, but my goal is to keep…[Read more]

Could you please add looping on the basic lesson. I’m probably the only one who needs it – I’m a very slow tune learner and it helps to loop 🙂
Thanks

Just want to mention that I appreciate the mix of beginner/intermediate with advanced tunes. Much as I love Andre’s tunes, I was finding his reels a bit too challenging. Then up popped Reel a Castonguay – yay!! So fun. Thanks!

Looping appears not to be available for the Brenda Stubbert’s Reel performance video. I can access it for all the other videos, I think. Possible to add? Still loving the site, totally obsessed (in a good way) with the Valse du Chef de Gare…

Thanks for all your hard work.

I’m not having any luck. And I totally agree regarding Gordon’s Red Book, and all his other books – wonderful.

An option that I would really like is if the videos retained the most recently applied settings. In other words, if I set a loop and speed for a particular video lesson or performance, it would be great if the video retained that loop/speed when I re-opened that video when logged into my account, for my next practice session. I have no…[Read more]

Seems like the B part has a few interesting variations.

I just discovered the harmony videos in Faded Love – awesome! Would love to see Gordon Stobbe / JJ Guy’s “Maligne Canyon” on here as twin fiddle videos.

Thanks
