Test-driving the fiddle [video]

Luke testing out the Abbotts’ newly-restored fiddle on the roof of their Santa Cruz home, with a couple traditional fiddle tunes, Angeline the Baker and Apple Blossom. And he *almost* manages to stay in sync with his foot…those darn triplets…

    I wanted to comment about Luke's version of Angeline the Baker. I've been trying to get that oldtimey bowing down for a while, and just have not found the right resources for learning how to do it. I'm hoping I can pick it up from the video if I watch it enough. Great bowing.

    Hey Russell! I just learned some German. Great to hear from you! Thank you again for the fiddle. As you can see, Luke enjoys it very much. I never knew that von means from so... signing off Leslie von Santa Cruz. Cheers!
