The Fiddle Project

Not updating on here much, as the algorithms don't ever seem to smile on me.... most of the action is on Youtube these days! Anyway, here is the tune Shave the Donkey that I recorded with the fantastic Helen Bell a few weeks ago - there is more of this in the works!

Here's Lady Compton's Whim on viola, to celebrate the release of the Viola edition of English Jigs Book One! www.thefiddleproject.org for more info

Something a bit different for this - here's a video I made with Adrian Lever - Guitar & Tambura during lockdown, I'm seeing him next week so this popped into my head! It's a tune I wrote for my parents and it's called Kinley.

Roman Wall - I can't remember where I learned this tune but it's one of my favourites! Just off to Shrewsbury Folk Festival to play for some Morris, who else is at a festival this weekend?

It's ! And if that's not a thing, then I'm making it a thing.

Here's Enfield Wash, a tune collected in John Johnson's "Choice Collections of 200 Favorite Country Dances" vol.8, from 1758. I learnt this from the fantastic fiddler Tom Newell, please forgive my slightly disheveled appearance, I'm still a bit covid-y round the edges!
