Scuttlebutt - November 30

November 30, 2022
So great to get back to  Nashville State Community College  yesterday to lead 2 workshops for the music program directed by the visionary David Edgington. 
This workshop included young string players from Crystal Plohman's  wonderful  Fiddle Frenzy group at Vanderbilt's Blair School of Music . Crystal is on the far left, co-instructor Meghan Purdue leaning in with a viola on the right and David Edgington 2nd from right, leading from the rear.
Thank you, Rudolf Haken , for transcribing my solo looping performance  of Stevie Wonder's "I Wish" and creating this video score! Dr. Haken is a Professor of Electric Strings and Viola at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I believe it is the only program in the world that offers a doctorate in Electric Violin and Viola! We've come a long way, baby!  Download the FREE PDF of I Wish!

My new video course is a quick 3-lesson overview of my Strum Bowing Method. For $27.99, you get a physical gift/access card that makes a perfect stocking stuffer for that string player in your life. Available exclusively at SharMusic.com .
