A visit from a great Irish fiddler

admin — Fri, 14 May 2010 03:20:07 +0000

Deirdre Ní Chonghaile has arrived in Chattanooga, and will be teaching two Irish fiddle workshops on Saturday at the Folk School. The early workshop at 10am is for beginner/intermediate level, and the second workshop at 2pm is for intermediate/advanced players. Both will give students a chance to learn some Irish tunes and some of the ornamentation that gives Irish fiddling its distinctive sound. If you’d like to sign up for either (or both) of these workshops, give us a call at 423-827-8906. See our classes page for a full description.
Deirdre will also be joining in on the Irish session at the Tremont Tavern in North Chattanooga this Sunday at 6pm. The tunes will be flying!! Come check it out!
