Thread Name: Difference Between Fiddle and Violin
Subject: RE: Difference Between Fiddle and Violin
There's a fiddler here in Oregon, Tony Wright, originally from North Carolina, who plays fiddle and mouth harp at the same time. He sits with his fiddle braced against his chest and his knee with his legs crossed. I'm told that this seems to be an Appalachian style, to hold the instrument that way. Anyone else ever seen this?
