Fiddle Studio

Cross tuning (All's Quiet)


Listen Later

Cross Tuning is changing the tuning of the strings of the fiddle from the traditional G-D-A-E to better match the key of the tune. It's mostly used in Old-Time music. We talk about different ways to cross tune, why it's done, and how it feels to play in a different tuning. It's not as hard as it sounds!

We present a setting of All's Quiet from Meg's new album Broke the Floor, from Meg Wobus and Charley Beller. Find the album here: megwobus.bandcamp.com.

The Fiddle Studio Books are getting a new edition! The 2nd edition of Book 1 is available now: Fiddle Studio books
