Having had such a super day with violinia and Sarah-Flute recently, I now at last have my "fiddle wizard" book.

In the book it mentions also the fiddlewizard website and of course I had to have a browse, and I found that there is a great "listen on line" radio station there playing non-stop jazz violin. I have it playing in the background now.

Yay Cool Great

click here then click on PLAY

Ooooh I hadn't investigated the links on there properly yet!! Good find, Jane

Does anyone know if there are any good fm or DAB jazz stations by the way? I know there's jazz sometimes on radio 3.

Hoping this station works somewhat from my computer with the slow connection - can but try!!

Ohhh this track sounds like us jammin'......well a bit anyway

Only not as good, right?

I can't make it work - think my connection is just too slow. Will have to send the link to friends with broadband and then listen at their houses...

Hey WOW!!! Stuff Smith is on...Sarah you better get broadband, this is incredible Stuff (soz for the pun )

BAD pun!

*adds jazz station to list of reasons to get broadband*

Will send the link to friends up the road and then beg them for a listen...

I know there are some Stephane Grapelli (spelling??!) & Django Reinhardt tapes at my mum's, need to look them out!

Could always play along (or try to ) with the Didier Wossname (no memory today!) bits of the Maxim SB show!!

Lockwood.....doesn't sound very French does it

Turtle Island String Quartet on now.....Fantastic, I have to buy some of this stuff (have to stop saying stuff) its sort of Vivaldi-ish but Jazz, sort of derived from the Four Seasons. YAY!!!

*Jane logs on to Amazon looking for Turtle Island String Quartet*

Ooooh wow.... *goes to look also*

Ahhh Lockwood. I almost typed Lockhart and then realised that's a character from Harry Potter... I thought it was lock-something, but no, it doesn't sound very French!

Ordered it...it was a track called Thin Ice.

*listens to samples*



I think some jazz has just come on the radio

*goes to listen*

Look forward to hearing about it, Jane!

Can't find a CD with that as a sample but the samples I did find are very cool

edit: I just found it! wow!

Woooo they're playing Didier Lockwood NOW!!! and from the CD I JUST ordered from Amazon. How spooky is that!!!!

*thinks, forum ghost at work again*

(woooooooooooo! wooooooooooo! )

Let me know if you have any recommendations when you get your cds Jane, I'd like to invest!!!

*resists temptation to just buy anything & everything that looks vaguely good.... *

I managed to make it work!

So cool!!

some stuff from Stuff at the mo

Turtle Island String Quartet on now.....Fantastic, I have to buy some of this stuff (have to stop saying stuff) its sort of Vivaldi-ish but Jazz, sort of derived from the Four Seasons. YAY!!!

I tuned into it after clicking on the link fabulous I just love it and was especially knocked out by the Turtle Island string quartet
