I'm seeking advice from fiddlers: I've
heard that all "cuts" should begin on a down bow. Is that good
advice and is it always true? When inserting a cut I do seem to think it
is easiest to begin on a down bow. However... I'm playing around with
bowings in the tune 'Crossing the Minch' (aka 'McNabb's Hornpipe') and seem to
think that it's easiest to slur the two eighth notes prior to the cut on a down
bow (to give emphasis to the first note and soften the tune a bit) and then
begin the cut on an up bow. It seems to work and I'm getting good speed on
it. Any bowing advice from anyone familiar with this tune?
