The Scale of Sixths (fiddle lesson)
This double-stopped, harmony scale is incredibly useful in many types of fiddle playing. In this fiddle lesson I explain what the scale is, demonstrate its use in folk, country, western swing and Gypsy fiddle styles, and give some exercises to help get your fingers accustomed to the scale. This scale has featured in several of my fiddle books, and I find it essential both in accompaniment and as an enhancement to melody playing. A pdf of the examples and exercises shown here is available to all my subscribers (see address at the bottom). There are also further exercises on my Patreon page (https://bit.ly/3lrVytk). I have an online subscription video course on folk fiddle at https://academyoffolk.com/​​ I have a book "Exploring Folk Fiddle" which examines many aspects of folk fiddling, including bowing, ornamentation tune forms and how to play for dancing.

I have been using this for at least 20 years and have found it an invaluable tool. Recently they have greatly expanded the "Real Instruments", which enables me to reproduce, for example, the authentic Honky Tonk band sound here, or others such as Gypsy Jazz quintet, bluegrass band, Western Swing, Delta blues, and hundreds of other niche styles. It comes for Mac or PC, and in lots of different sizes and versions.Check it out with the links below!
