SUMMARY:Darol Anger’s Bluegrass (& Slightly Beyond) Fiddle-ology Workshop
DESCRIPTION:COTFA is proud to present a special fiddle workshop with the legendary Darol Anger!\n\nOne of the most influential fiddlers alive\, Darol Anger is a popular clinician and Berklee professor with his own online Fiddle School at Artistworks.com. He has helped drive the evolution of the string band through pathbreaking ensembles such as his Republic Of Strings\,  Turtle Island String Quartet\, the David Grisman Quintet\, Psychograss\, the Duo\, and other ensembles. He has played and studied Bluegrass music all his life. More than traditional fiddling\, a high level of ensemble skills are required for Bluegrass Fiddling. \nThe Bluegrass & Beyond Fiddle-ology workshop will probably include (but not be limited to)\n* Soloing:\nPrepared or improvised solos\nPlaying and quoting lead melodies\nQuoting important historical fiddle solos  Uncle Pen\nHarmonizing melodies\n* Backup skills:\nTechniques for playing fills     Generating counterlines harmonies and double-stop textures\nRhythms\, bow shuffles\, and the Chop\nAlso to be included in the Intensive:\n* Playing fiddle tunes at high speeds and difficult keys\n* Intonation exercises\n* “Problem” areas of the fiddle\n* High positions on the neck\n* Other issues that might be diminishing our ability to have fun because they are difficult. \nFolded into the session\, we’ll examine tonal concepts\, phrasing\, rhythm techniques\, the Blues melodic environment\, look at the Dominant 7th Cycle\, and analyze some standard tunes to freshen\, polish and possibly ruin them. \nParticipants can expect to come away with new or improved techniques and insights that will lend to increased understanding\, ease\, and fun when playing Bluegrass fiddle in either an accompanying or a solo role. Knowledge of these ideas and techniques will greatly increase fiddlers’ musical confidence and spontaneity in a Bluegrass jam or band. \nIf you have any questions or would like more information\, please email ErinB.COTFA@gmail.com. Sign up today\, space is limited! \n50% of this workshop’s proceeds will go to support the Colorado Old Time Fiddlers’ Association. \n\n\n\n\n\nClicking “Submit” will bring you to PayPal to pay for the workshop\, which is the best way to secure your seat! \nIf you would prefer to pay in person at the workshop via cash/check/credit card/Venmo\, please let us know by emailing ErinB.COTFA@gmail.com.
