My goal for this workshop is to look into the early styles of old time fiddle music, and bluegrass and country mandolin styles.
I will spend time talking about the basic right hand rhythm patterns and how they can be expanded to develop more complex rhythms.
I like to use the shuffle stroke as well as the standard up and down strokes and to demonstrate this I will teach using some common fiddle tunes and focus on the nuances of picking, as related to old time fiddle bowing.
I will start with some simpler tunes and then move onto more complex tunes.
