Fourth Fingers - The Beginners Guide to Fiddle / Violin Lesson #5

In this months edition of The Beginners Guide, we're learning about using the fourth finger on your left hand to play notes. We'll be using the scales and melodies we already know from this series (Major Scale, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Old Joe Clark) with some slight modifications to learn how to use our fourth finger in place of an open string.

These lessons are God sent. Definitely going to be a patron member soon! Rather spend money on lessons that are actually helping me little day by day than books on Amazon!

Thanks so much for these awesome videos! I recently found an old violin in my closet and have been enjoying learning how to play from watching your lessons.

Thanks so much for making these videos. I’m a beginner on the violin and they have been very helpful to start learning the instrument. Much more detailed than many other guides I have seen.

Glad you’re enjoying them!

Hi, thanks for the lessons, but why do you hold the bow differently from what you teached us in the first episode?

When you’ve been playing as long as I have you learn when/ how to break the rules. Thanks for watching 😏
