Beginning Fiddle
Gain the basics of playing the fiddle with the confidence and techniques necessary to play simple fiddle tunes, including tuning, bowing, scales, intonation, and tunes. For people who have never before picked up the fiddle/violin. If you are conversant with the instrument, it is recommended that you instead take classes that focus on style and/or genre. Skill Level A Period 4 ~ Ryan Koons
Fiddle Tunes of Northern Europe
This class focuses on tunes from Scandinavia, the British Isles, Iceland, Ireland, Norway, Scotland, the Shetland Islands, Sweden, and Wales. We will explore jigs, polskas styles, reels, schottises, and other tune types, while talking about stylistic differences. Any instrument or voice type is welcome, not just fiddles! Bring your recording device. Skill Level B/C Period 1 ~ Ryan Koons
Scottish Fiddle
A rare opportunity to learn from and play with one of Scotland’s foremost fiddlers. Pete Clark will address various aspects of technique and style covering the Scottish fiddle repertoire, including slow airs, strathspeys, reels and jigs. Skill Level B/C Period 2 ~ Pete Clark
