The
Southern Hemisphere International School of Scottish Fiddle
was founded in 2004 to foster the music and culture of Scotland
and to explore the cross over of this culture into others, by
bringing together top international teachers with students of
all levels for learning, fun, and fellowship.
We aim to create
a relaxed and comfortable learning environment for all attendees
regardless of age or ability level.
Classes are
divided by participants' ability to learn by ear, into three
different levels: slow, moderate and fast. While classes are
taught aurally music is generally available by the end of the
week for participants to take home.
Each fiddle
class has the same number of sessions with all the instructors,
and there are usually four fiddle sessions per day. Accompaniment
classes are flexible depending on numbers, allowing for both
group and individual tuition.
As well as the
set classes there are a variety of elective classes each year
which include informal chat sessions with all our instructors.
The evenings
are taken up with dancing, ceilidhs, masterclasses, concerts,
and of course, jam sessions! |
