plenty of free stuff on the enternet to get you started. Fiddlehed is an excellent site.

I have started to fool around with trying to learn the fiddle from books, the internet & YouTube videos. I really want to learn the fiddle & know a teacher would be great help, but a teacher isn't in my tiny little budget right now.

I guess I'm wondering: 1) Is it possible to learn the fiddle without a teacher. 2) How many of you are self taught?

I know it doesn't help, but I guess I should add that I do not play any other instruments - the fiddle will be my first.

Thank you.

I learnt to play fiddle without a teacher.Practicing three to four hours a day,and after thirty two years,i've achieved a reasonable level of play.Enough to be in a band .However I can't say I've achieved anywhere near the professionals.



I started at a later age so I guess that figures.
