For violinists in Suzuki Books 3 and up who are interested in learning the rich folk traditions and songs associated with fiddling.  Chris Brennan-Hagy will teach the technique associated with the genre as well as several songs that are typical of different fiddling styles.  The students will master a few pieces and perform them on the Enrichment Concert on Friday.  Students will be placed in sections of the class based on their current Suzuki piece so the class instruction level will be appropriate for them.  The class will meet once a day for fifty minutes.
