Chop and Groove for Fiddles

November 14, 2019 By

Instructor: Erica Brown
Experienced Fiddlers with Chord Knowledge Only

Chopping* is a rhythmic, percussive bowing technique that is used to provide backup to singers and while another instrument is taking a solo. It sounds a little like beat boxing on the fiddle using chords and different rhythms to create a really cool sound. It was made popular recently by fiddlers like Casey Driessen and Darol Anger.

*Being able to play and have a general understanding of chords is a must!
