Rebecca (fiddle lesson)

Описание: Rebecca is a tune written by mandolinist Herschel Sizemore. In this fiddle lesson I show a fiddler's impression of the melody, with particular attention to the fingering required by the tricky key of B. I point out the difficulties of the odd structure, with several half bars, and suggest frequent use of the "fiddle capo" technique. Finally I try an improvised solo, hanging fairly close to the melody.
