Reviews

“I love your music. I have your DVD, Scottish Fiddle Beginners and I love to play a tune you taught on it, Portree Bay. Make more DVD's and I will buy them all”

Peter

“This is an excellent tool for less confident players, as sections can be repeated as many times as needed. With this facility, you can really get to grips with the tune and the ornamentation being taught, you can learn at your pace and still have the added advantage of the visual.”

“The DVD also comes with an instructional booklet with notations and all the exercises, bowing techniques and ornamentations that Sarah talks about on the DVD, plus a few other tips.

Eilidh Scammell - Ceol Beo Traditional Roots Magazine

“Very nicely done! I have two of your DVDs and to echo Xaz's comments please make more at the intermediate level or higher. Great stuff!”
