LP Music

This is “Freylechs from Warsaw” from one of my favorite books, “The Klezmer Fiddler” by Edward Huws Jones. Each song has an easy violin part to go along with it that I have never used before. Now that I’ve played them together I think I’ll have my beginner students learn a few so we can play a duet that sounds fancy! It will be good practice for holding half notes at the least.

Happy 12th day of Christmas!!
This is the last possible day for me to post this song -but it was so many weeks of work to figure out how to duet something (and updating my 15 year old computer and learning new programs), recording listening to a metronome and then realizing I was out of tune with myself, my naked children running and crashing the recording, a week long stomach virus for the whole family and me BREAKING THE NECK OFF MY CELLO. Lots of fun conflicts. So please don’t mind that this is the last possible day for me to post this in the Christmas season, and enjoy the hard work. I plan on dueting more in the future -and hopefully getting a little better at it. It sure is harder than playing a live duet with another human, I’ll tell you that! Merry last day of Christmas!
