What is "Fiddling with Traditions"?

Fiddling With Traditions is a fun, imaginative, multimedia concert that features fiddler/tunesmith Gretchen Koehler & pianist Daniel Kelly sharing fiddle tunes that evoke everything from sweeping paint strokes, to intricate stitching, to the fiery forging of Northern NY's folk traditions. From heart pumping musical arrangements to peaceful panoramas, their expressive soundscapes capture the spirit of rug braiding, blacksmithing, quilting, silversmithing, paper making, knitting, painting and woodworking. Audiences of all ages will enjoy this captivating musical adventure enhanced by a backdrop of gorgeous film and images.

In celebration of their new album, “Fiddling With Traditions,” TAUNY North Country Living Traditions Award recipient, fiddler Gretchen Koehler & pianist Daniel Kelly will perform music from their new release, interwoven with fun, never before shared behind-the-scenes stories.

If you HAVE seen the multimedia show- this will offer "bonus" content. If you HAVE NOT yet seen the show, this will be a great "teaser!" Join TAUNY for this exciting & special event.
