Rocky Mountain Fiddle Camp in August

The 8th annual Rocky Mountain Fiddle Camp will offer two weeks of fiddle and traditional music instruction in a variety of styles between August 6-20, 2006. The camp is broken into two, seven day sessions (6-13, 13-20) with instruction in bluegrass, old time, Celtic, Cape Breton and swing fiddle. They also have classes for harp, mandolin, piano, bass, flute, whistle, cello and old time dance calling.

They will offer a special clawhammer banjo program during the first week of the camp, led by Ken Perlman, and a bagpipe program for the first time this year as well.

Instructors this year include Sandy MacIntyre, Byron Berline, Paul Anastasio, Rodney Miller, Tony McManus and a great many more, and all ages are welcome. Special rates are offered for parents or guardians who accompany a young camper, and a scholarship program is available.
