In music, a Twiddly Bit is similar to a Solo music solo though it is typically shorter and lacks the structure typical of a solo, that is to say a beginning, middle and end. Rather it is short and sweet and can serve to fill space, act as a turnaround between parts, or as a substitute for a solo where a musician wants to show off but time does not allow for a full solo. There is also a Victorian era Parlour music parlour song called Twiddley Bits recorded by Sheila Steafel on the album Victoria Plums . It is about a woman taking music lessons.
