Summary
In Learn to Play Irish Fiddle 1: Polkas, Jigs, & Slides, fiddler extraordinaire Kevin Burke eases players with no experience behind them into the realm of the Irish fiddle. Burke employs a threefold emphasis -- on jigs, polkas, and slides -- and, first explaining how to perform double-stops, notes, rolls, and various forms of musical ornamentation, helps the viewer work up to performing such Irish classics as "The Connaughtsman's Rambles" and "Saddle the Pony."
