Fiddlers are musicians who play the fiddle, a string instrument similar to a violin. The term "fiddler" often refers to those who play folk music, including styles like bluegrass, Irish, and country. Fiddlers use various techniques, such as bowing and finger positioning, to create lively and expressive melodies. Fiddling is a significant part of many cultural traditions and often accompanies dancing. Fiddlers may perform solo or as part of a group, and they frequently participate in jam sessions where musicians gather to play together. The art of fiddling emphasizes improvisation and personal expression.
