How the Fiddle Became the Violin
Sunday, September 29, 2024 at 3:00 PM
Led by renowned violinist and fiddler Brandi Berry Benson the band/ensemble traces the history of the fiddle and the violin through centuries in music and tunes. From the origins of the instrument in the 16th century, fiddle and violin have had an inspired relationship with each other that only later split into defined genres of so-called art music and folk tunes.
A special welcome and shout-out to the young musicians in our community! Elements of this program are part of a couple of in-school workshops at MNPS schools, also led by Brandi Berry Benson.
