My top tip on how to practice your Irish fiddle ornamentation.
For lots more Irish fiddle tutorial videos head to: learntoplaythefiddle.co.uk/
For my online Irish fiddle courses: learntoplaythefiddle.co.uk/co...
In this Irish fiddle lesson, I'll show you a trick to practice any phrase in any irish fiddle tune that you are learning that uses ornamentation, or in fact any other Irish fiddle technique. It'll help you to make sure that you are playing your Irish fiddle tunes perfectly in time even as you introduce more complicated ornamentation in to your fiddle playing.

This was a really good practice tip. Much appreciated and as long as I've been playing this was a really good idea to alternate with and without the ornaments when I'm learning a new tune. Thanks again!

Thank you, what tune was that at the start?

It's a lovely reel called Johnny Mcgreevy's, by the great fiddler from Chicago.
