Learn more about fiddle

The fiddle is a stringed musical instrument similar to the violin, but it is typically associated with folk music traditions, particularly in countries like Ireland, Scotland, and the United States. The term "fiddle" often refers to the style of playing rather than the instrument itself. A fiddle is played with a bow, and like the violin, it has four strings tuned in perfect fifths. The difference lies in the playing technique and the types of music performed. Fiddle music is characterized by lively rhythms, ornamentation, and improvisation, and it is commonly heard in genres like bluegrass, country, Celtic, and old-time music. Fiddlers use a variety of bowing techniques, including fast, rhythmic strokes and intricate finger movements, to produce a vibrant, expressive sound. While both the violin and fiddle are technically the same instrument, the approach to playing and the context in which it is used often defines the difference.
