I want to big up Chordify for the older learner
-
Hey Mark. I too am retired and trying to do the impossible. "learn to play a break or lead on the fiddle" I have found that music can be learned and feel for a song can also be learned. I WASN'T BORN WITH IT. I wanted to share with you that one of my best fiddle teachers is in fact on online guitar teacher that has plenty of free stuff out there and plenty of inexpensive additional stuff. Most interestingly the way he teaches the guitar also instructs me with great ideas for my fiddle. He simplifies every thing and explains what is going on and you will be able to improv faster than me since you are using the same instrument as he uses. He is easy to watch and listen to. FIND him on you tube or go direct to his site on the web. I have a link here to his lessons page and what is nice is that you can sample and work your way down in 10 mins listening to portions of his samples. It only takes a few bars to get the idea of what he is teaching. I love some of his 4 note solos and how they work. Here is the link to get you started: https://www.activemelody.com/lessons/
Have fun and see if there are any "circle jams" or open to anyone jam events in your area. You just have to ask EVERYBODY you know. Took me two months of asking and finally found the perfect monthly (anybody at any level is welcome) jam session only 100 miles away. Not bad since it is sparse here where I live.
