11th Annual Wallowa Fiddle Tunes Workshop

The 11th annual Wallowa Fiddle Tunes Workshop will be held at the Wallowa School in Wallowa, Oregon; sponsored by the Wallowa Valley Music Alliance. Ours is a week-long, small, inexpensive and family oriented music workshop focused on traditional string instruments, begun in 2005. There is a country family dance on Thursday nights with music provided by the workshop participants.

Expect to be challenged musically, make new friends, and experience new learning opportunities. Wallowa Fiddle Tunes Camp was begun in 2005 with the goal of offering affordable, group fiddle instruction for individuals and families in a relaxed, week-long camp format.  Participating in a musical community through music and dance has resulted in the addition of instruction in other accompaniment string instruments as well as on-site technique of ensemble participation.
 
This year we’re also offering a Mini-Camp for Kids as well as a student-led afternoon workshop on ukulele.

We are pleased to introduce the instructors for Wallowa Fiddle Tunes Camp 2015:
Isaac Callender - High Intermediate Bluegrass Fiddle, Duane Boyer - Ultimate Beginning Guitar,  Judy Lungren - Intermediate Southern Fiddle, Stuart Mason - DADGAD Guitar,  Jon Meek - Intermediate Bluegrass Guitar, Emily Muller-Callender - Vocal Repertoire, Matt Sircely - Intermediate Mandolin, Larry B.
