Here’s a lesson on how to better remember tunes and their titles.
Basically, you practice playing only the beginnings of all the tunes you know. You can use flash cards to help. Make a card for every tune, put the first few notes of it on the back. Eventually be able to play the beginning of a tune on command…

Some tunes we’ll use to practice this:

I made some “Learning Chunks” on the FiddleHed site to help you do this. These focused exercises contain sheet music, tabs and mp3 snippets to guide you on each step of your fiddle journey. 

These and all new lesson pages can be viewed for one week after publication with a FREE trial membership. Check it out here: https://fiddlehed.com

And after you sign up, I’ll also send you a mini-course of lessons specially designed for your skill level.

Alrighty. Play every day, have fun 😀 and thanks for making music 🙏  
   
Now, go fiddle with it...
