Fiddle Hell Online is happening for the third time on November 4-7, 2021! We have many new instructors and almost all new sessions. The November FHO will have 175 live workshops to learn from, 35 live concerts to enjoy, and 35 live jam sessions to join on Zoom, for fiddle, mandolin, cello, guitar, old-time banjo, & singing. Other instruments and listeners are welcome, too. All sessions can be replayed (and slowed down) for the next FOUR months (until March 8, 2022). Fiddle Hell instructors -- experienced & supportive teachers, and wonderful & inspiring players -- will cover Bluegrass, Blues, Cajun, Cape Breton, East European, Electric, Irish, Jazz, Jazz Manouche, Klezmer, Latin, Mexican, New Acoustic, New England, Old-Time Southern, Québécois, Scottish, Swedish, and Swing styles.
While she originally hails from Alaska, Caitlin now hangs out in New York City, which has a storied past of Irish fiddlers and music. Michael Coleman, James Morrison, Andy McGann, Paddy Reynolds, Larry Redican, and others were there in the past, and heavily influenced the New York Irish style. This intermediate seisiún will feature common New York tunes at a moderate pace for intermediate players. Chris Ranney will back Caitlin up on piano.
Don't know some of the tunes? Remember that you can replay this jam later and slow it down to 1/2 or 3/4 speed without changing the pitch.
