I mentioned I had more great info about Patsy Reid (bio)... had shared a couple tracks in the STRATHSPEYS! Thread (1st was back in2022!). S he might be more well known to others here (I obviously live under a rock), but this Scottish musician & teacher has really caught my attention!  

This is the beginning of an adventure...  

 

Fun with Fiddle - this was a promo for some workshops a few years back.  Patsy gives tips on playing The Angus Buster (I believe it's her composition) - especially LOVED her suggestion/reasoning for playing on the LOWER PART OF THE BOW!

Patsy has SEVEN albums, think 4 are solo - check them out on Bandcamp, or your fav streaming service.

She teaches, but has some tutorials on her YT Channel (Fiddle Lessons with Patsy Reid) - even the 'How to Tune' lesson is insightful!!!), as well as a few other's scattered around, like this one...  

Feis Thaha Patsy Reid'Feis Thaha' commissioned this video when covid prevented an event.  Close-up camera for fingering & full view for bowing reference - 7 GREAT tunes to learn (Chapters with time-stamps!).  

 

Some VIOLA!  The Railwayman Air - composed by Hamish Napier, Patsy Reid on Viola.  

 

Yeah, she composes AND sings with the fiddle!
