Ready to fiddle?
From Wednesday till Sunday you can follow different workshops. Each day, choose between 7 and 9 different music styles taught by professional fiddle players. Discover the workshops of the tenth edition!
Level
All fiddle players with intermediate instrument skills are welcome, so no beginners. There will be masterclasses for highly advanced fiddlers. Do you have doubts about the difficulty of the workshops? Feel free to contact us.
Instruments
All workshops are designed primarily for violinists (or viola players), with some sessions specifically tailored for cellists. That said, all instruments are warmly welcome to join the ensemble, as well as participate in two workshops on Wednesday and two on Sunday. Those workshops clearly specifies ‘open for all instruments’.
Workshops
You can register for workshops per day – you’re not required to follow all sessions with the same teacher. However, you’re welcome to attend multiple workshops with the same teacher, as they offer
a new program each day. We kindly ask that you only attend the workshop you’ve registered for. Switching to a different workshop during the day is not allowed.
Timing
The workshops take place from 10:00 till 17:00 (Sunday till 16:30) with a lunch break from 12:30 – 14:00 at De Centrale.
See you next year for the 11th edition, mark your calendar!
