Hobgoblin's Waltz ~ Fiddle Tune Tutorial | Katy Adelson

- Here is a tutorial for how to play the tune, "Hobgoblin's Waltz" on the violin! =) This is a tricky tune with an odd key signature, but I think it sounds quite similar to Harry Potter's "Hedwig's Theme." I'm not entirely sure who wrote this piece (The Session discussion seems to suggest Dave Marcus may have written it), but it's a neat tune!

I thought the original sheet music had a few notes written out that could perhaps be thought of more as ornaments to make the tune a little easier to play, so I tried to teach a simplified version. ^_^ It's still quite a complicated tune, but I hope this video helps a little. The sheet music is a bit intimidating to look at, but I think it's a little easier to learn by ear, or perhaps follow along while listening to it. I took a more repetitive approach to this lesson since a lot of the phrases and notes are not really intuitive! :o
I really apologize for the censored beginning! T_T I had no idea it looked like that while I was holding everything in one hand. I almost missed it entirely after I edited the video together, and had to cover it up with flowers once I noticed it. I hope we can all just laugh at it... :S
This tutorial was requested by a fiddler named Grace. Thank you, Grace, for your nice letter and drawing! I hope this helps! =)
Thank you for watching, and I hope you have fun practicing! =)

Wow cool tune :) and the flowers at the beginning crack me up 🙃
Katy,
Thank you for posting this. You're an amazing talent and a great teacher. As far as the flowers, it's a nice touch. I would probably feel much better about the boston drivers on my commute if they held up flowers instead of their finger while cutting me off.
This such a neat tune for a Halloween tutorial. I didn't know that this tune existed.
I really like it for Halloween time, too! It's a pretty neat tune! =)
I watched it again because the in the 6th measure of part B you slid your 3 third finger up to the first finger 2nd position instead of what I was trying to, that is slide the fourth finger up to the first finger 2nd position. That slide seems to add a far better mood to this tune.
I know that I wrote you a thank you note but I just have to say it again....
Thank you sooooo much!!!!! 😊😊😊 this is a wonderful tutorial! I am so glad that I requested because now other people are learning to play this lovely song!
Grace, you’re so right!!! This tune is so good! It’s wonderful, with movement and flow, and bits that leap out unexpectedly… Thank you for requesting it. Katy has done such a great job of making it accessible to us with her wonderful way of teaching. Absolutely love my poor attempts at playing this, and every time I play it, it makes me happy, so many thanks for that. Much appreciation🙏🏻
Thank you so much, i'm learning every day with you !!!
Excellent Katy! Always very interesting to watch, even for a non musician like me. You could surely make yourself a good living playing and teaching music ... you're really, really good at it. HAGWE Katy =)
Youre so great playing the violin, you're my inspiration
Thank you so much!! I think my playing level is very achievable with practice and dedication! ^_^

Bonsoir Katy,
d'abord merci pour toutes ces vidéos mises en ligne, partagées, pour moi ça n'est que du bonheur... Bravo pour toutes les précisons musicales et conseils, pour un violoniste qui a débuté le violon il y a 5 ans à l âge de 45 ans, c'est une vraie mine d'or et je me régale d'autant que mon style de prédilection est la musique bretonne et irlandaise...
S'il n'y avait pas tant de distance j'aurais été ravi de vous prendre comme prof 🎻🎶😊
Continuez à nous faire rêver et nous montrer qu'en fait c'est possible... n'arrêtez pas vos vidéos et encore merci de me donner encore plus envie de jouer et d’apprendre.
Ps : la czardas de Monti en découpage séquencé, un jour peut-être ?👍
lovely
I love your lessons ....
Thank you! I'm glad that you like them! :)
Another wonderful lesson, now I just need to do the hard part and practice lol
Thank you for such a nice comment! =) Practicing is the most important step! :D
Saludos amiga! Suena muy bien ese violin.
고맙습니다...^^ gold??? 손가락!!!
In waiting for you were are you ? ;)
Will you eventually be doing a tutorial for Si Bheag Si Mhor?
I'm hoping to do a tutorial on that song soon! =)
Katy Adelson That would be wonderful. I have worked on learning it from several different arrangments but i really enjoy your variations.
Apology accepted, Katy. Although I probably wouldn't have noticed otherwise :)
Do you think you could play Irish Washerwomen?
