Welcome to this November 2009 update.

Plus free audio samples, downloadable music pages, and reviews.
The Projects section features tuition videos, ‘The Bow Hold‘ (33,000-plus hits to date on YouTube!) and ‘Holding the Fiddle’, and also stuff about Pete’s performance work - in Cooper and Bolton and with Rattle On The Stovepipe
