New Fiddle Music

Hi Everyone!

The new fiddle music is finally here! I have listed the link below where you can retreive the music to print out. There are currently six songs:

Orientalische Melody (Klesmer)
Back Up and Push (Bluegrass)
Fire on the Mountain (Old-time)
Johnny's Gone to France (New England)
Sally Gardens (Irish)
The King of the Fairies (Irish)

I have included only the basic tune for Fire on the Mountain, but will be adding solos later. There will be some solo parts available in the other tunes as well. For Back Up and Push, I have provided the most advance version. (Caution: CRAZY hard). A more playable version will be available on this blog in a week or two.

We will be recording the music in August, so keep a look out for the audio files.

Click here to get your music!

Don't forget to fill out a fiddle registration form by August 10th to be a part of the fiddle group this fall!
