Fiddle Fair Presents – The Inaugural Fiddle Fair Autumn School
November 2nd – 9th, 2014
Baltimore Fiddle Fair is extremely proud to present the very first Fiddle Fair Autumn school, a unique opportunity to spend a week in beautiful Baltimore, West Cork and learn from two of the absolute masters of the fiddle tradition: Kevin Burke and Tim O’ Brien. The price of ?999 includes airport transfers, seven nights accommodation at the amazing Inish Beg estate, www.inishbeg.com, breakfast and dinner every evening, six days of classes at Inish Beg (morning and afternoon with Tim and Kevin) and a tailor– made immersion in Baltimore and the islands.
Baltimore is not only synonymous with great fiddling, it is now a favoured destination for humpback whales! Your trip will include some whale–watching, island hopping and nightly sessions in local pubs (with your fiddle masters).
It all culminates with a concert in the bewitching Dún na Séad Castle on Saturday November 8th with Tim and Kevin.
This is the stuff that dreams are made of. Suitable for handy or intermediate fiddlers only. Limited to 20 students, which will allow for a really intimate, quality experience. Packages available for non–playing partners.
