Hello Fiddle Club!
I hope you have been well! Playing and listening to fiddle music is something that has always brought me joy and I hope the same is true for you. Please click below for examples of our Fiddle Club songs, as well as other great music to listen to! Check back often, as I will update it with new music often.
*Please note that most of these tunes have so many different variations, as interpreted by different musicians around the world, that many videos are different than our versions. Listen carefully and see if you can figure out what is the same and different from what we know! Also, remember that I changed the key (starting on the lower strings) so the cellos and violas could play too, so some videos are not in the same key you are used to. See if you can figure it out!
Check out this video of the song "The Connacht Man's Rambles". Can you figure out the tune by ear? Start by finding the steady beat while you listen to it a LOT. What key is it in/what note is "home base"? Can you figure out the form of the song- when does the A section end and the B being?
