Fiddle music

Yeah, I mean on the bass.

So you took some fiddle tunes and play the melodies pizzicato? Interesting. Do you have recordings?

I want to learn some of the fiddle music I've been listening to, with the bow. Bass fiddle, right? I like the way they throw their bow around and play across the strings percussively, and I like how you can hear lots of little shifts in weight during a single bow stroke. The stuff I'm listening to now is from Nova Scotia - very different from anything I've heard before. I hope to get time to play something like it. Summer project, I guess. Between bouts of house painting.
