Liked on YouTube: Da Slockit Light (fiddle lesson)

Da Slockit Light (fiddle lesson)
Da Slockit Light (the dying light) is a tune by Tom Anderson, from Shetland. He made a major contribution to Shetland folk music as a fiddler, composer and educator. He was responsible for putting traditional fiddle on the syllabus in Shetland schools. In this fiddle lesson I show the basic tune, with on-screen sheet music, and suggest some ornamentation. I have a collection of 13 Shetland fiddle tunes, available free as a pdf to everyone who joins me on Patreon. https://bit.ly/36FeePh 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.
