We'll be playing Jigs, Reels and Hornpipes that will make you want to dance, and beautiful Airs to melt your heart. Learn how to improvise the tunes, and how to put together instrumental arrangements with other musicians. I studied fiddle in Ireland for a year and am so happy to pass along what I know to my students. This Celtic Music Camp is open to children ages 8 and above who have been playing their instrument for at least 2 years. The following instruments are welcome: violin, cello, recorder, tin whistle, flute, guitar, piano. I myself play almost all of these instruments as well as accordion, low whistle, mandolin, mandola, and a bit of the bodhran drum so there's a lot we can do to have fun with the instrumentation.
I'm happy to teach the kids some new instruments too. Violinists find it very easy to pick up mandolin because it's the same fingering, flute and recorder players might like to try tin whistle, and all the kids seem to like playing the bodhran.
My Music Camps are half-day 9:30-12:00 or 1:00-3:30, for the 5 weekdays of a given week. I book my camps according to the availability of interested parties.
