About Valley of the Moon Now in its 37th year, the Valley of the Moon Scottish Fiddling School in the northern California redwoods invites you to a week of intensive study, recreation, and good times with people who share an interest in the music and dance traditions of Scotland and beyond. Directed by Scottish fiddler Alasdair Fraser in the beautiful setting of Camp Campbell in the Santa Cruz mountains, string players and other musicians of all ages and abilities are encouraged to explore their own musical expression and potential in a supportive, non-competitive environment. The camp provides a total immersion experience, with participants and instructors living, learning, jamming and playing together in community. The main teaching focus is on the fiddle, featuring Scottish and related fiddle styles; there are also guitar, cello, keyboard, dance, song, and percussion classes. All classes are taught by ear without written music. Evening activities feature jamming, dancing, singing and generally uproarious fun; recreational opportunities include swimming, hiking, and exploring the redwood trails. Cello, piano, mandolin and guitar classes are designed for intermediate to advanced level players. Scottish Fiddlers
