About time too! 🙂
The second one is still rendering, but here's Nearer My God to Thee. I'm not religious, but I've always liked this one.

And the Godfather Theme. This was still processing when I posted the link, but hopefully will be all finished by the time anyone tries to watch it.

Sounding good! Way better then I can do on either of those songs. Is that your new violin too?

Nice Jim, thank you for sharing..
That fiddle does have a nice sound. Well, the player has a lot to do with that.

Thanks @rockingglr33. Yes, that's my new Fiddlerman Master - it's a really nice instrument.
@JamesRSmithJr - thanks James! 🙂

Nice work and nice sounding instrument @Jim Dunleavy - you've got a good one there!
The shifting's pretty good too - I need to spend more time on that! Well done 
I seriously recommend not copying my mistakes. D'oh - 
Please make your own, different mistakes, and help us all learn :-)

@BillyG Thanks.
Yeah shifting needs a lot of practice to get it accurate. I'm still not happy with mine as I can only get close enough to easily correct the intonation with finger angle changes about half the time (and that's on a good day! lol).

Really nice. I especially like the haunting, melancholy sound you're getting on the God Father theme.

Thanks @damfino and @Bob. 🙂
I see the next tune a week is just out - Braveheart. I quite fancy having a go at that one.

Bingo. I feel that people are happy about that one. I'm glad to hear it.

Sounding great Jim!
Perrie, the tune a week is very nice for hearing different songs I had not heard before, not a movie watcher so many of those are new to me.
Thanks
Master the Frog and you have mastered the bow.

I understand Mark. Great tunes are usually written for high budget"Great Movies". 🙂 I'm glad I'm introducing them to you.
So far I have only played pieces from my suggestion list which is pretty big now.
