Welcome to the Home Ruler Page!

"Home Ruler" is a lively hornpipe that’s a joy to play. With its 4/4 time signature and steady rhythm, this tune has a dance-like feel that’s great for working on your timing and bow control. The melody has a nice flow to it, with plenty of opportunities to experiment with dynamics and articulation, which makes it perfect for fiddlers looking to add some character to their performance.
For beginners, "Home Ruler" offers a great opportunity to focus on bowing technique and keeping the rhythm steady. If you’re more experienced, you can work on ornamenting the melody, varying your bowing styles, and exploring the tune’s upbeat tempo. It’s one of those hornpipes that’s both fun to play and rewarding to master.
