Yes it's time for the next student concert! We are so excited to offer TWO concerts on July 18- an in person concert at the Fiddle Lessons PDX home studio at 2pm and an online concert via Zoom at 4pm. I can't wait to hear all the students' performances of their Russian fiddle tunes and the group piece, Khorovod!
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!
Hi there fiddlers and friends!
This year I will be theming every quarter a different regional fiddling style! We will learn about the different sounds, styles, keys and traditions of fiddling from around the world. I can't wait to share with you some of the best tunes from a multitude of cultures- each has something beautiful to appreciate and learn from!
