Fiddleheads Acoustic Music Camp
(all ages)
This is a weekend opportunity for
musicians of all ages in a folk music setting. A variety of
workshops are offered from “bluegrass to swing”, back up styles,
improvisation skills, theory, learning tunes by ear, vocals, and
instruments such as violin, mandolin, guitar, viola, cello, piano, and
hammered dulcimer. The weekend specialty is the band performances,
where participants join a band and practice and perform for each other.
Don’t think of this as a kids’ camp; on the contrary, every year brings
ages 8-70, and all ages and musical abilities are welcome. Fiddleheads
Camp is run by fiddlers Kathy Sommer (Zimpfer) and Ellen Carlson, and is
in its 9th season this year.
