PEI Fiddling Traditions course, August 17 and 18
For more than two hundred years, Prince Edward Island has been home to a strong fiddling tradition: a blend of Scottish, Irish, and Acadian influences. Nearly every district had its stock of fiddlers who played their lively, highly expressive music year-round at house dances, weddings, 鈥渇rolics鈥 (work parties), church picnics, community socials, and schoolhouse dances.
This traditional PEI fiddling style has not previously been well represented on either commercial or field recordings, but you can learn more about it in a two-day course, taught by Ken Perlman, curator of the Bowing Down Home website and author of Couldn't Have a Wedding Without the Fiddler: The Story of Traditional Fiddling on Prince Edward Island.
The registration fee for this two-day course is $100. See for more details.
