Web fiddle lessons!  After deliberating for a couple years, I've decided to finally provide live webcam lessons.  Currently, I have a number of students in Kansas who have dedicated themselves to learning to play the fiddle, and rather than just moving away and saying farewell, we will continue with the lessons following a summer break.  All it takes is high speed internet, a webcam (which is already built into many computers), and the free service called Skype.  The students and I will still meet every week, only now the student can relax at home rather than worrying about driving, traffic congestion, or foul weather.  This means a savings on commute time, gas expense, and wear-n-tear on the car.  I can't say online lessons are any environmentally greener than driving because they both consume energy in one form or another, but that's another topic.

So, in September 2009, the webcam lessons will commence.  If you're in another state and can't find a good fiddle teacher, email me and we'll go from there.  Of course, I'll still offer lessons out of my home in Charlotte, North Carolina for the local students.

Look forward to hearing from you.
