Feeling a bit rusty? Wanting to play the tunes you already know better? Find it hard to memorise music?

Traditional fiddle music is a taproot at the heart of Scottish culture. Join me as we set out on a five day journey in Argyll, Scotland to discover the devils and delights of playing fiddle music!

My teaching is a blend of technical, musical and moral support for fiddlers and violinists of all abilities. You’ll come away with an armful of ideas to take your playing to the next level

Maximum 10 participants

Level: mixed ability. Be able to play at least ten fiddle tunes fluently. Not appropriate for absolute beginners.  Reading music is not a requirement. Tunes in pdf and mp3 form will be sent out 2 months before the start of each course, so you can get familiar with the common repertoire.

  • Develop your technique
  • Build your confidence
  • Expand your repertoire
