The fiddle is a bowed string instrument identical in construction to the violin, with the name typically used in folk, country, bluegrass, and traditional music contexts rather than classical settings. Playing style emphasizes rhythmic drive, ornamentation like slides and double-stops, and tunes learned by ear for dances and social gatherings. It is central to traditions such as Appalachian old-time music, Irish and Scottish folk music, and Cajun music, and is popular as a hobby instrument for its portability and role in communal music-making.
