    I picked up violin randomly about five years ago and fell for the instrument. This was my first reel, which I learned playing along to this video. After five years, and playing this again today, I thought it about time to say thank you, what a hugely influential person you are on my playing. You and John Hartford of course! :-)

      Yes, most definitely. Keep at it, but have fun learning those tunes that you really want to play. Slow them down if necessary, to get the hang of how they are bowed and try to work out the notes of the tune. Try a few simple slides, they are easy and always sound good in a tune.
