| Legends and lore of the fiddle the fiddler and the tunes... |
Ever wonder where the fiddle came from? Ever hear of a haunted fiddle? How about a magic fiddle? A cornstalk fiddle? Ever wondered about that breed of fiddlers who compete for big prizes, or at least for the distinction of being top fiddler on their side of the mountain? As well as being a fiddler myself, I've also wondered about these things and have collected many stories about the fiddle and the fiddler. I'm about to go strolling. Come on with me and I'll play you a song and tell you a story... ...and even teach you to play a simple fiddle tune. |

| Ever wonder why they call it a "fiddle?" Ever wonder why they call it a "violin?" (Have I insulted my violin? I just called it a fiddle.) Ever wonder why they call it "the devil's instrument?" So have I. Mosy on over to"The Big Question" for some answers. CD's of fiddle and piano, and fiddle and drum music are available at my official website at Fiddlerwoman.com |
