Winyadepla - PDF sheet music for viola with bowings and ornaments

PDF sheet music for viola

Traditional Shetland tune, "Winyadepla", with bowing and ornament suggestions based on the way that I play it.

There is also a "basic" version of the melody included, which you can use to add your own variations if you wish. The basic version comes with chord symbols for an accompanist.

You can see a video demo of this tune at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3bAs4fZksQ. (Note: this download is for the first tune in this set only.) This sheet music is meant to be used in parallel with the video so you can learn how the ornaments and bowings are intended to sound.

For learning more about traditional fiddle style on the viola, and how to come up with these bowings and ornaments yourself (developing your own personal style), I recommend that you check out The Fiddle Project.
