If your child wants to chill and not be too challenged, sign up for “Mixed Styles” and they’ll be put into a more experienced-age appropriate class.
If your child is up for a challenge select two groups: a “Major” and a “Minor.” -
“Mixed Styles” - Campers will have fun mastering easy-to-learn tunes of various fiddle styles specifically designed for their ability level. It’s like a 101 class in college…. introductory and engaging - Campers are going to sound like fiddlers!
“Major & Minor” - These classes are for experienced players to explore two particular styles of music they’re most interested in. Major and Minor classes are taught by teachers whose expertise is in a particular style.
Campers will dive deeply into the sound & ornaments of the styles they choose. These tunes are often arranged so players experience playing melody, harmony, solos & back-up. (we’re music theory nerds so.. major and minor… get it?😂)

Please remember Fiddle Camp requires campers have at least 1 year of private lessons on their instrument.
We do not offer “technique coaching” at camp and it’s very important for each camper to have had time to master fundamentals so they feel successful and confident at camp!
