My Pretty White Kitty (fiddle waltz)
WALTZ OF THE WEEK #35 - My Pretty White Kitty (fiddle waltz by John Dee Kennedy)
This week’s waltz is inspired by my mom and her ragdoll cat Lucy.
There is a field recording of it on “Field recorder’s collective” on bandcamp. I think I may have played this at a dance with Chirps Smith. I learned it from notation in a book I got from him called “The Gettysburg Collection”.

La Partida (Venezuela Waltz)
zhlédnutí 740Před 14 dny
WALTZ OF THE WEEK #34 - La Partida (Venezuela Waltz) I’m back in my practice room this week with something a little different. Here’s a waltz I picked up from the playing of Ian Walsh. La Partida is a Venezuelan Waltz with a completely seductive lilt to it. I found there is accurate notation on the session. I didn’t find it until after I learned it by ear, but that’s ok because I’ve found tunes...

WALTZ OF THE WEEK #33 - Chestnut Waltz This week’s waltz is direct from the live stream at the National Oldtime Fiddlers’ Contest and festival in Weiser Idaho. I competed in the adult division. This is one of my favorite Randy Howard compositions and I will post it again later with better audio. I wanted to preserve this performance despite the subpar audio, it shows my first try competing at W...

WALTZ OF THE WEEK #30- Gardenia Waltz This mainstay of contest and Texas fiddling features challenging closed double stops. It was written by Johnny Gimble. My version is inspired by the playing of Bobby Hicks.

Butterfly Waltz (fiddle)

WALTZ OF THE WEEK #26 - Butterfly Waltz This waltz comes from the playing of Joe Pancerzewski. I was gifted his CD “Legendary Northwest Fiddler”, which has lots of great tunes! The liner notes say “From a light opera score, rearranged for dancing”. I believe the CD is out of circulation- it’s on Voyager records and includes a nice bio of Joe, likely written by Vivian Williams. I’m pasting the f...

Old South (fiddle waltz)

WALTZ OF THE WEEK #22 - Old South Not too many fiddle waltzes out there played in the key of Bb! It makes for a very spacious left hand feel with lots of sixths and interesting double stop choices. It sounds kind of nostalgic to me, which totally fits the title. #waltzoftheweek #fiddle #fiddlewaltz #fiddlersofyoutube #tuneoftheday #oldsouth #oldsouthwaltz #nostalgic #contestfiddlewaltz #waltzwe...
