October Old-Time Week 2013 brings an wonderful array of talent to Augusta.
The week wraps up with the 20th Annual Augusta Old-Time Fiddlers’ Reunion featuring a unique square dance on Friday evening; performances by older generation master fiddlers and younger accomplished fiddlers from all over West Virginia all day Saturday; and a gospel sing on Sunday morning.
All classes are intended for those who can already play their instrument to some extent and are ready to start learning Old-Time style, technique, and repertoire.
To register, students should specify “October Old-Time Week” and the class name and instructor.
October Old-Time Week Coordinator: Gerry Milnes
