Fiddle Week at The Swannanoa Gathering

June 26, 2022 - July 2, 2022

- Details available at The Swannanoa Gathering website.

Since the invention of the violin, the music of its unschooled alter-ego, the fiddle, has excited people to dance, evoked the devil and the spiritual, echoed the human voice and heart. It is an instrument that has made its way into the core of many different traditions and it speaks a language understood worldwide. Fiddle Week at the Swannanoa Gathering celebrates that universality with classes in traditional and contemporary styles ranging from Irish to Cajun, from bluegrass to blues. The week also includes classes in guitar, focusing on accompaniment in various styles, and there are related offerings for the fiddle’s bigger siblings, the cello and bass.

Registration and a detailed listing of classes, instructors, and weekly schedules available on The Swannanoa Gathering website.
