Russian Fiddling!

This quarter students will learn about Russian fiddle tunes! All students will learn this famous traditional tune, "Khorovod" (pronounced ha-ra-vot), and we will perform the tune all together as a group! Online students will record themselves performing the tune to a click track and will have an introductory lesson on musical recording projects. In-person students will get to perform a more complex version of the tune in a group. It's going to be lots of fun!!

Check out the video below to hear the tune and get inspiration for the style!

Khorovod is a traditional Russian round dance, a dance done in a large group while holding hands in a big circle!
