QUEBEC FIDDLER HOLDS WORKSHOP
Sunday, June 17, the Quebecois fiddler, Pascal Gemme will be teaching
a fiddle workshop at Claude Church in Caledon. Pascal's band Genticorum
(www.genticorum.com) is playing at the Brampton Folk Festival June 16. While
Pascal is in the area, it is a wonderful opportunity for local fiddlers to take
advantage of his extensive knowledge of the beautiful Quebec traditional music
repertoire, tunes which are largely unknown outside of that province. The full
afternoon workshop is suitable for intermediate/advanced level fiddlers. Tunes will
be taught by ear with sheet music to take home. The workshop costs $35 and will
be held from 1 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, June 17. Claude Church is located at 15175
Hurontario Street, Caledon. Please email wjeg@3web.net to reserve a spot, or call
Elizabeth Szekeres at 905-843-2749.
