The St Patrick's Day party has started.
There may be a few days to go to the actual day but why wait till the last minute.
You will all have plenty of time to put your tune together.
So come on put on something green and start fiddling.
I'll start things off with the old standard, Danny Boy.
And I will post another tune on or before the big day.
(please excuse the open E and the couple of notes after it. )
Seen it all. Done it all. Can't remember most of ..... What was I saying????

I guess I am next, @coolpinkone, and you made me brave enough to finally just play my Ming Jiang Zhu already! What a joy to finally play it for a couple of minutes.
I would only do one take for this one so here it is sloppy mistakes and all. I'm self conscious about how much louder it is than my unplugged electric for my neighbors. Hence the giggles and no retakes. I'll gradually play it more often and get over my timidness.
I didn't quite nail my first attempt at a high-position harmonic on one note for this recording...but of course did it fine in my practice runs That's the way it goes I guess
@Ferret Loved your rendition of Danny Boy. Lot's of expression and I envy your bow control. Nice hat!!

Hi Michelle
Thanks for joining the party
It would seem that when you uploaded the video you forgot to make it 'public' as I keep getting the message 'this video is private' when I try to watch it.
I'm really looking forward to watching it when it's available.
Seen it all. Done it all. Can't remember most of ..... What was I saying????
Oops fixed! I'm sure you'll wish I'd kept it private once you hear my swallowtail mess lol

Oh my goodness Diane!!! It's incredible how you can play all those instruments so beautifully and mix together. So talented. Is that a whistle flute?
Do you have a post anywhere on how you combine the vids into one?

Thank you so much for the detailed info Diane. I'm going to bookmark this and come back to it when I get more ambitious later. I think it would be a great challenge someday once I build more skill, to record several violin parts to a tune and mix it together.
Thanks again and really enjoyed that
Michelle

@MontrealShell
Michelle. That was great. I'm glad you fixed the 'private' video thing. I'm sure that your Swallow Tail Jig will be enjoyed by all. Thanks again for joining the party. Great hat by the way.
@KindaScratchy
Diane. You where great as usual. All of you. The tin whistle was a nice touch. A great explanation of your video editing, thanks
Thanks for coming to the party.
I'll try and post another before St Pat's Day. I just thought that Londonderry Air / Danny Boy would be a good way to get the ball rolling.
@fiddlestix @Barry @coolpinkone @mad_wed Thanks for your kind comments.
And remember folks, there is still plenty of time join in.
