Fiddle Fair Presents The Second Fiddle Fair Autumn School

November 1st – 8th, 2015 www.fiddlefair.com

Baltimore Fiddle Fair is extremely proud to present the second 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 Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh. The price of €999 includes airport transfers, seven nights luxury accommodation at the amazing Inish Beg estate, www.inishbeg.com, breakfast and dinner every evening, seven days of classes at Inish Beg (morning and afternoon with Mairéad 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 bars with your fiddle masters.

Price includes tickets to a concert in the beautiful Saint Matthew’s church on Saturday November 7th with Kevin and Mairéad.

This is the stuff that dreams are made of. Suitable for ‘pretty handy’, intermediate and experienced fiddlers only. Limited to 12 students, which will allow for a really intimate, quality experience. Packages available for non–playing partners.
