[my] Talent Forge, a Year in Review

Merry Christmas from Vi The Fiddler

Hey Everybody, Many of you know that a little over a year ago, Matthew Hartz and I set out to create an online music school. We started talking about it in October 2012 (as I was wrapping up my fiddle tune a day project), and by the second week of January this year, we were […]

Free Fiddle Lesson Greensleeves Christmas Carol

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 360

I have to say that this has been a wonderful Christmas. Really, one of the best ever. It was full of family, and love, and giving and receiving of gifts, and of course, delicious food. But, that’s not what Christmas is all about. It’s about fiddling. And tonight, I’m playing Christina’s favorite Christmas Carol, Have […]

Deck the Halls – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 359

It’s Christmas Eve, and I can’t think of a better time to Deck the Halls with boughs of holly, or spruce, or pine, or even fir. So far, this has been a wonderful Christmas Season. I have had good times with friends and family, and the Christmas Spirit has come upon me fully. I did […]

Good King Wenceslas – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 358

Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without the music of the season. Christmas Carols are very special to me. They evoke heartfelt memories, and emotions. And they are a great way to bring people together. I don’t have any particular tie to Good King Winceslas, except for that it was the first tune that inhabited my head […]

Away in a Manger – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 343

Away in a Manger is a beautiful Christmas carol. And, it was the first tune that came to mind when Steve and I decided to play today’s Fiddle Tune on the air – on KRFC’s Runaway Fiddle. I really appreciate Norm Cook for having us on the air with him, and for manning the video […]

Greensleeves – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 156

Greensleeves is another classic melody that would be a contender for the most beautiful tune award (at least in my book.) It’s haunting notes bring me back to medieval times. Hearing this song also reminds me of hearing Steve Tiilikainen play this tune on the piano so beautifully when we were in college – not […]
