We had a very enjoyable and successful Virtual Summer School in August and were delighted by the enthusiasm and positive attitude of all of the participants. We are looking forward to another block of NEFS Online, with tuition through video tutorials teaching tunes and techniques, worksheets and audio files, plus a weekly Fiddle Practice live play-along on Zoom. New for this block is an optional Live Teaching call, building a core repertoire or tunes suitable for all Level 2 and 3 players. For more information please see the NEFS website and you can book online now.

The North East Fiddle School was set up in January 2018 to provide regular, high-quality fiddle classes in the North East of England. Working with extremely talented tutors, NEFS strives to provide the very highest quality of fiddle tuition – a safe and nurturing learning environment encourages participants to improve both as fiddle players and musicians, increasing their stylistic awareness and appreciation of a strong fiddle tradition.
Directed by Stewart Hardy & Ali Say, NEFS currently provides weekly classes on a Wednesday evening in Gosforth, Newcastle with tutoring from Stewart and Melissa Whitehead. Two ability levels are catered for, with classes focusing on Fiddle Technique and Style & Repertoire, as well as an Absolute Beginners class with Ali. Full details of classes can be found on the North East Fiddle School website.

Fancy a few tunes?Just a couple of days until the January Workshops on Zoom. There's a relaxed Friday evening of tunes to play-along to on any instrument and the dots (including tunes, harmonies and chords) are provided. Plus there are two Fiddle Workshops on Saturday, each teaching a tune and fiddle techniques aimed at a different level. Visit the website for full details and booking info. All resources are provided and workshops are recorded and available on YouTube after the event.

Gearing up for a new block at North East Fiddle School!~~~
A new year, a new block of online fiddle tuition!
We begin again at NEFS on Weds 13th Jan and bookings are now open. There will be five weeks of material - video tutorials to teach techniques and tunes, and live Zoom workshops for Fiddle Practice techniques and learning core repertoire tunes. Recordings of the workshops will be available afterwards too, so you can access all of the materials at any time you choose!
Full details are on the website linked in the event information below. (Sadly the course isn't free as the event shows 🙁 I can't get the FB event to show the price unless it's a Paid FB event! There are also 5 weeks of video tutorials and Zoom workshops, but I couldn't find the event scheduling feature - is it just me today?!?!?!)
We hope you can join our friendly community of fiddle players!
