It's a shame that the remote doesn't sound as rounded as live in person, but, under the circumstances. Still, all of them are great. Thoroughly enjoyed all contestants. I do favour Katrina Nicolayeff playing, especially with the figuration of the strings (orientation). I still don't know how she is so extraordinary gifted playing the fiddle that way. My Dad was left handed and he use to pick up my guitar and pick out old tunes, as well. I'm right handed and my guitar was strung for the 'normal' right hand, top string 'E' Base to the 1st string the high 'E'...🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻👏👏👏
Cartridges where both there, didn't compete. Tristan was an accompanist for some. Ridge didn't go, he accompanied the Paskvan boys remotely from Texas.
Not to draw comparisons but Katrina is kinda the "Hilary Hahn" of Texas fiddle. I'd like to see them together sometime, just playing and comparing notes and having a good time!
