Stephanie Coleman on “Pulse Bowing”

I love Stephanie Coleman’s fiddling, and our relationship with old-time music is amazingly similar... we both grew up with it and were influenced by a lot of the same great Midwestern musicians (she grew up in Chicago, I was in northern Indiana).
Knowing that she and I share an intuitive approach to traditional music, I was curious to pick her brain about how she teaches fiddle. Here’s the first installment of our conversation!

Wow 2 of my favorite fiddlers talking about playing old time! Where's the full video?

Aw, thanks! Not sharing the full video cuz it wasn’t all for public consumption 😊 … but we should definitely do another chat!

[@devin.thunhorst]

Yes please!

Sounds great. I wish I could have seen her complete bow hand throughout. Please do a video of dissecting how to do this. 🙏
