The second annual NSCE Fiddle Camp is a four-day camp for beginner violinists looking to explore the rich tradition of Celtic fiddle music in a fun, interactive, and creative way. Students will meet for four hours each day to learn, play, and build community together. At the end of the week, players will have an opportunity to perform what they have learned for their families.
- Ages 7-12
- For players with no previous experience or less than one year of experience
- Players learn the fundamentals of playing the violin, viola, or cello & are given an introduction to the Celtic fiddle tradition
- Players traditionally learn to play by ear using call-and-response listening exercises and games
- Players discover the importance of musicianship and ensemble through interactive games and activities
- Students will participate in group games, sports, walking field trips, arts & crafts, and other activities
Upon completion of the NSCE Fiddle Camp, players will be ready to join the NSCE Intro to Fiddling group class in September 2023!
