New original, owls in the attic, on fiddle

So, this is another of my compositions, a jig in Em with four parts. Also, if you want to make sure you see all my videos (I don’t always post them here) go subscribe to my YouTube channel, it’s Gunnar Salyer

Very nice! I have been wanting to learn the fiddle, My family has one because my brother and mother tried to learn at one point, but gave up. I just can’t figure out the no frets thing.

Thanks y’all! @D_HRRFan7303, definitely go for it, I was also trepidated by the lack of frets, but if you already play another instrument, your fingers will know basically how to move, and it’ll be fairly easy to get used to.

The bow, however… that’s a whole 'nother barrel of cheese
