Scarborough Run Through
After teaching today figured I’d give this one a try since there were a couple requests. Still need to memorize the main notes a bit more but this was fun. :)

👏👏👏👏👏beautiful and thank you for sharing. As always I will try to mimic 😄 sorta like singing with the radio or in the shower. I think I am a rock star until I hear myself recorded . I did enjoy the triplets and double stops , gives the song a whole new prettiness!

@Douglas Kooienga possible fall into the pond as well. I am always impressed with the fiddle dancers. It will probably never be me

Scarborough Faire Tab and Scale
Just made this today and thought I’d pass it along in case you want to try. The scale is also tabbed out below. It’s the Dorian Mode. This is the scale that makes anything you do sound like medieval music. Therefore it is the best. Enjoy! Jenny

If I ask for Jenny to play, that makes 2 request 😃
Curious question about playing for all
Out of interest, how long do people actually practice for and the frequency of their practice. I aim for at least 15 mins a day ( some days do slip past but I work shifts and it’s easily done especially when I do days and come home knackered) , but I’ve noticed of late that my left hand starts to cramp up now, reducing practice time ( might have something to do with new hand position for attempting vibrato). This is for my own curiosity to know if I need to make more practice/playing time. Thank you for reading

I know about the hand cramps from vibrato practice. I am hit and miss. Depends what the work week and other stuff. Sometimes your brain is just spent.
Solar Eclipse
Just encase you might of missed out on a solar eclipse. This was my view in Bonnie Scotland. It was only partial, so it didn’t get fully dark. But you wouldn’t have guessed 😂.
