This community music class for students of all ages gives you the opportunity to learn traditional fiddle music from around the world as well as newly-written music, all of which is arranged in multiple parts for a "folk music orchestra". Instruments include fiddle/violin, viola, cello, bass, penny whistle, guitar, mandolin, banjo, and bodhran.


We welcome beginner to advanced players, as there is a part written for every skill level. Performances happen several times throughout the year at various community events. Fees are $200 for the first family member and $50 for additional family members, and are collected on September 1 and February 1.


Fees include class time as well as all sheet music and recordings for performance material.

Cost: Member: $200
