Salt Spring Island BC
Our 11th Annual Salt Spring Fiddle Camps July 19-23 and August 16-20 2010 are for all ages, and a lot more than just fiddle! All abilities from first time to advanced players are warmly invited--Violin, viola, cello, piano, guitar, mandolin, voice, percussion, banjo, whistle, composers, dancers, artists and dreamers are all welcome! Both camps kick off with an Instructors Showcase Concert at ArtSpring Theatre the Sunday before camp starts. Classes and activities run Monday morning through Friday evening at the Salt Spring Centre, a retreat centre and school situated on 70 beautiful acres of meadow, old growth forest and organic farmland 5 km south of Ganges, Salt Spring Island BC.
The August camp features Celtic, Texan swing, French Canadian, Old time, Eastern European and new Canadian music plus some intriguing classes including cello, musical saw, voice, guitar, banjo, string band, percussion ensemble, mandolin, improv, art, and fiddle technique.
