Here is tune number two. Member Oldbilljones very kindly sent me an email suggesting that perhaps my sound post was in the place. While I am a little timid about messing with that, it did get me thinking about bridge placement. So I measured and sure enough, my bridge was about half an inch too close to the fingerboard side.

Thanks again, OBJ for the email.

Streaming: Soldier's Joy

So.. here is Soldier's Joy with my readjusted fiddle. Orchestration is double banjo, pvc flute, 'drum' - thats me beating on my banjo head with chopsticks, and fiddle.

I dug around and found some etudes to play around with, but I am not sure it is showing up in my playing yet. Comments and especially suggestions on which of the many things I need to work on I need to work on the most are much appreciated. (FiddlerDi... I know you are out there!)
