Clear, fun, patient teaching of Celtic and Nordic fiddle tunes for all levels of players collected from icons of fiddlling tradtion. I use multiple learning modes: auditory, transcription, dance and stories. Check out CDbaby.com for sample playing on my CD 'Farther Be In The Welcomer' and also on my website www.countrycapers.net. Travel to countries for study enhance my passion for teaching this music and for learning more myself: I've just returned from my Canadian Maritimes sebatical.
