Glad you all are enjoying my version!!! And, I played this on my great grandfather's fiddle...
Girl, have you ever thought of playing Amazing Grace in that tuning? You inspire me to try and put a little more effort in my fiddlin. 😉
Cool, i have the mouthpiece of my great grandfathers bugle.
Have you ever heard a fiddler whose playing elicits both chills and tears at the same time?... Bravo, cheers and deep respect to master fiddler, Julianna Waller.
yes.....me
I just found you, you are a huge inspiration, the best rendition I've heard. Thank you!
This is great! Also thank you for not randomly adding "The Streets of Cairo" to it, a lot of people ruin "Bonaparte's Retreat" doing that but I appreciate how you didn't!
Stunning.
Grandpa would be proud. Just beautiful!
The best rendition of Bonaparte's I've ever heard!
Beautiful Julianna, thanks
Thank you very much for the video and a wonderful performance.
Glad you watched! Just now catching up with the comments....
Excellent
Beautiful rendition of Bonaparte's Retreat. Very interesting cross-tuning.
Thank you for watching and listening...I enjoy free improvisation on this tune every time I play it!!
The emotion on the intro.... just awesome!!
do you teach how to play it?
Bonaparts is a pleasantly easy tune, and i discovered that didgeridoo makes it sound ...bagpipish...if the didgeridoo is a D timber. this is nice rendition. i play it on the fiddle my mother had when she was teenager.. i am a fiddle nerd.
Super hermoso como se llama la pieza
Worthwhile intermediate step. and of course, thx.
thats my mom!!!
hey Dean Lungu...…..AGREED!!
That was beautiful that girl can sure enough play!
Good job!!!!
fantastic.
Julianna's got bee honey on her strings!...
Masterful!
Thanks....I recently performed this again live with a whole new improvised expression...coming soon.
@@juliannawaller-martinez5462 I cannot wait!
What was your tuning?
For a failed rebellion in 1798, and our hopes were dashed by Wellington.
DDAD ?
Yes, the G string is tuned "down" to the low D. The D string stays. The A string stays. The E string is tuned down a whole step to D. It's cool!
@@juliannawaller-martinez5462 I play "Midnight On the Water" in that tuning. Bagpipe sound is what this tuning is going for I guess. Rumour has it the British banned bagpipes in Scotland 400 years ago and the fiddlers invented this tuning. Not sure this it true but it makes a great story.
What is meant by cross tuned ?
Dene Deh-Cho The violin is tuned differently than the normal E A D G. For this tune the strings are tuned D A D D, high to low. This creates the droning sound & gives the impression of a bagpipe.
@@juliannawaller-martinez5462 oh ok thank you.
