This Introduction to Violin and Fiddle Workshop is intended for adult beginners. No experience is necessary, though this workshop will be good for complete beginners through early violin students. This workshop will focus on many beginner concepts including instrument care and maintenance, how to hold the instrument (bow and violin), tuning, proper use of your right hand (and how to use the bow), and the basics of beginning to use your left hand by learning some basic techniques and scales. This workshop will include techniques that can apply for both beginner violin and fiddle students. You will be ready to play your first fiddle tune by the end of this workshop!
Workshop cost is $25 for the hour-long workshop. If participants would like to borrow a violin for the duration of the workshop, they can borrow one from the shop for an additional $5.
