When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it, or it's been deleted.North East Fiddle School and Stewart Hardy Music — feeling fantastic.2 weeks ago
We had a fabulous first night on Zoom for Block 4 last night, with Stewart Hardy Music and Grace Smith Music providing useful exercises and some great tunes!It's not too late to join us, as all our Zoom calls are recorded and available for you to catch up with, or to rewatch at any time.
There is also a fabulous video tutorial from Kevin Lees - Music on a wonderful Halling from Gudbrandsdalen, which fits perfectly with our focus on jigs and 6/8 grooves.
The other video tutorial series is by Stewart on 'Roland and Cynthia Taylor' (Bill Black), which is a bouncy, dotted jig and such fun to play!
