Fiddle Workshop: It's all about the Bow - with Shelah Spiegel & Tim O'Brien
12.30-1.30 TBFC Workshop area
Without the bow, the fiddle is nothing but a box of wood. It’s what you do with the
bow that makes the sounds, styles, techniques, flavor, and feeling. Learn the key tools to help you sound good (so that others want to play with you!): What to play (and not) in a bluegrass jam, using the bow, and the fundamentals of backup (you can't always be the star): long bows, "chunks", fills. Shelah Spiegel is a fiddle champ, former TBFC judge and runs a jam in Orange County.
