Description
Here is a complete course in which Stacy Phillips unlocks the secrets of playing authentic bluegrass fiddle. These information-packed lessons are aimed at basic players as well as violinists who play classical, jazz or old-time music and want to learn the nuances of bluegrass style.
Stacy concentrates on some classic songs, showing you how to give each one a typical bluegrass flavor and create a hot fiddle solo in the styles of Benny Martin, Kenny Baker, Chubby Wise, Jimmy Buchanan, Bobby Hicks and others. With his encyclopedic knowledge of bluegrass style and history, he breaks each piece down with clarity and precision. Stacy fills you in on the underlying principles behind the licks, so you gain musical knowledge that will be helpful in any style you decide to play.
Throughout this course Stacy provides in-depth, detailed advice on all aspects of basic fiddling, including slurs, double stops, slides, bowing patterns and other essential techniques. He starts you with a solo that has been used on a host of classic songs, including Why Did You Wander? Gonna Paint the Town and On My Way Back to the Old Home. This solo illustrates much of the bedrock of bluegrass fiddling. Stacy takes a typical solo apart note-by-note, analyzing how and why each phrase is played in the bluegrass tradition. Other songs that Stacy examines include "Take This Hammer," "Jimmy Brown the Newsboy," "Long Journey Home," "All the Good Times are Past and Gone," and "Salty Dog Blues."
