Alasdair Fraser and Natalie Haas, WORKSHOP, in Victoria

University of Victoria
Victoria, BC

WORKSHOP Alasdair Fraser & Natalie Haas have inspired and encouraged countless aspiring and accomplished musicians. They will hold a special 3-hour workshop for all string players (fiddle, viola, cello and bass) based on the fiddle music of Scotland and beyond. Other instruments are also welcome. The goal is to explore playing traditional music in a group, with emphasis on arrangement ideas and the techniques that give traditional music its particular flavor. We will look at the elements of language and dance and how to put fiddle tunes together to form a medley or a larger piece of music. Teaching will be geared towards intermediate to advanced musicians but enthusiasts of all levels are welcome to attend. Beginners will be encouraged to participate at their current level of ability.
