10 Easiest Fiddle Tunes for Children

Playing the violin or fiddle is not an easy thing, but I think it’ really worth. I learn to play the bath bassoon when I was young, and I often played in an orchestra with other children We really enjoyed it and it was a great joy for us. I was always happy to go to the orchestra, what’s more, some of my friends and I made a little orchestra, and played chamber music. I loved listening to the others playing the violin.  Oh, good old times! Fiddle is mostly used for country, bluegrass, and traditional kinds of music, while violin is primarily referred to classical music. That is why we decided to primarily (but not solely) focus on fiddle kinds of music, which are, luckily, easier to play at the start. Nevertheless, even the easiest fiddle tunes can get way too complicated in the hands of virtuosos. Insidermonkey experts made a list of 10 easiest fiddle tunes for children.

We have picked three tunes from the list for now. Little Brown Jug was composed by Joseph Winner in 1869. As a drinking song it became very popular during the Prohibition, so the thematic might not be the most appropriate one for children. Nevertheless, the instrumental version is quite easy to play, and probably the most famous instrumental adaptation of this song was by Glenn Miller. My Darling Asleep, and in Irish the Mo Muirnin ‘Sa Codlad, is one of the traditional Irish songs written down in the late 19th century.
