- If you don't yet know the tune, then Call-And-Response is a great way to develop your ear. If you already know the tune, then it's a good way to review and practice it. 🧠
In case you stuck, refer to sheet music on the FiddleHed lesson page: fiddlehed.co/twinkle
Here's how it works:
-I play a bigger chunk of a song so you get an idea of what we're working towards.
-Then we start the Call-And-Response game. I'll play a little bit of that big chunk and then leave you a space to respond. 🧩
-We'll do two rounds for each little bit so you have time to get it. If you need more time, just rewind. ⏪
If you want an extra challenge, then just listen without looking at my fingers. 💪
Though it's a beginner song, more advanced players can add creative and challenging variations. Instead of responding with the exact thing I play, you can:
-Respond an octave higher: A3-3-E3-3-4-4-E3
-Respond an octave higher in third position
-Respond with different textures: plucking, tremolo, staccatoAdd double stops, slides, rolls and other fiddle variation
Don't be discouraged if you can't get the whole song in one session. Your ear may need a break. You can play the game over several sessions. 📈
Finally, if you get totally stuck, then refer to the sheet music on the Fiddlehed lesson page. 🎼
Call-And-Response develops your ear will help you pick up new tunes and play with others. It also helps you develop a mindset for improvisation.
Some ways you can practice Call-And-Response on your own
-Play something on fiddle, then sing the same thing
-Bow something, then pluck it
-Play a melodic chunk, then play the chords for that chunk
I hope that was fun and challenging for you.
