- Learn to play the popular Irish reel "The Merry Blacksmith"-a complete lesson from the archives of iFiddle online magazine (www.ifiddlemag.com). I'll take you from first note to last so you can learn this Irish Trad fiddle tune by ear. Using two cameras, including one that looks over my shoulder for a "fiddler's eye view," you'll be able to watch my fingers as I play the tune. (This video lesson first appeared in the Winter 2019 issue of iFiddle.)
The sheet music for this tune is included in my book "Learn To Play Irish Trad Fiddle," a collection of 50 classic tunes from the Irish tradition, for beginner/intermediate students of any age. Learn more and order at: www.irishtradfiddle.com
Thank you! I've wanted to learn this tune and you're a great teacher!
I found a version by a mandolin player and that is how I learned it. A very catchy tune that "grabbed me". I just need to practice it for a few more days. Thanks Tom, Bob
I have heard it called Paddy On the Railroad. A more apt location for a merry blacksmith, I believe. Thanks, Tom.
He's really very good. Great tunes.
Thanks for your nice comments. I hope you'll enjoy learning some other Irish Trad tunes from my video lessons!
So glad I found this site!! 74 and just started OT and Irish fiddle last Feb. Been playing clawhammer banjo and mandolin for a few years.
Thanks for the feedback, Ray. I have plenty of good tunes (24 in all!) you can learn using my video tutorials! Good luck with your Irish & OT fiddling!
Thank you, Tom! Got it!
