Our advanced and intermediate fiddle classes will have one more session in Spring, 2022: Email russell@riverfolk.org if you are interested in any level.

NOTE: Beginning April 1, Blackstone River Theatre plans to change our classes covid policy and no longer require masks or proof of vaccination status.If you wish to still wear a mask that is of course totally fine ... and we WILL ASK you to wear a mask if you are NOT vaccinated. By attending a Blackstone River Theatre class, you are voluntarily assuming all risks related to exposure to COVID-19. Blackstone River Theatre will continue to monitor our COVID policy with hopes a return will not be needed.

Students must bring: own fiddle and bow, a music stand, and a recording device. Both playing by ear and some sight reading will be included. Players will be placed in all classes by the instructor's evaluation of skill level. Prepayment necessary!
