fiddle lessons

Learning stringed instrument

Fiddle lessons are instruction in playing the fiddle—the violin as used in folk, country, and traditional music.

The term signals a distinction from classical violin training, emphasizing different techniques, repertoire, and often a more informal teaching style: She's been taking fiddle lessons since she was eight.
