So today I will be explaining the differences between a violin and a fiddle.
I just want to say that there is no difference between them at all! All you do is play differently. Now you must be asking, " Jo, everybody plays different types of music so why is it called fiddle playing and not violin playing?!?"
Well, to answer your question, technically you can say you are playing violin music but to be more specific about what type your playing, you can say I am playing fiddle music.
Here's what fiddle playing sounds like:
That video was a guy playing really good fiddle music! Some people even make up different fiddle songs because it's just pretty easy to make! They don't even need to name it. Once you hear that type of music, than you will know that's fiddle playing. And again, it isn't a different type of violin that's called a fiddle. It's just a certain way you play it.
I actually LOVE fiddle music!! I try to play like that but for me, I can't do it. I just need time and practice. Which I am too lazy to do. :) Ok, actually not true....... I practice for church and for the bible studies and then after I practice. But most of the time I don't try to do fiddle music. But I should!!
Well, Bye!!!!!
