Thread Name: The speed of the Fiddle
Subject: The speed of the Fiddle
Are some instruments at least potentially or inherently faster than others?

Clearly the ability, experience and depth of practice are crucial but after watching Kathryn, small pipes and fiddle, and Mike Tickell, fiddle, and probably hundreds of others in sessions etc. it struck me that it might be easy to play some instruments faster than others.

Any truth here?
