Fiddle Tunes

“Fiddle Tunes” is a week-long, total-immersion workshop with a hallmark of presenting an expansive array of regional fiddle styles. Workshops, classes, band labs, tutorials, dances, concerts, singing, open jams, hat parties – all contribute to a week of living, learning, and jamming with masters of regional fiddling traditions

You’ll learn by the oral tradition - listen, imitate, listen, practice, and listen again. You won’t get any written music on paper, except by accident. The main teaching focus is on the fiddle, but you’ll find day-long instruction on the banjo, guitar, and button accordion, and nearly as many classes on piano, keyboard accordion, singing, clogging, string bass, mandolin, and social dance.
