- In this Irish fiddle tutorial, I'll teach you the popular Irish polka, The Britches Full of Stitches. This full-lentgth fiddle lesson is suitable both for beginners and for more advanced players.
For beginners and improvers, we'll start by learning the melody, slowly phrase by phrase, giving you plenty of time to work out the melody, and paying some attention to polka rhythm. I'll give you lots of opportunities to play along and get happy with the melody.
We'll then talk about some simple bowing patterns that will help make the tune flow a little better.
In the second half of the video, I'll take you thorugh some things you can do to liven up your playing of this polka. We'll start with some simple ornamentation like slides, and move on to talk about some nice chords (or drones) that you can use, and finish up by learning a fun variation that you can use which will combine lots of these elements.
I'll finish by playing the tune for you at a couple of different speeds so that you can play along and practice!
