Scholarship Report: Annelise’s Lessons with Neil Pearlman
In March of this year, I had the great fortune to receive a scholarship from the NHSMC which would cover six individual hour-long lessons with Neil Pearlman. I have long admired Neil’s playing as well as his innovations in the field of trad/folk piano, so I was beyond excited and thankful to receive this scholarship!
Scholarship Report: Jasper’s Week at Maine Fiddle Camp
After the final workshop, I asked one of the instructors if he had any tips on playing Scottish music specifically. He broke into an upbeat strathspey rhythm with a whole lot of jump in it and said, "Fire." That's what I'm taking with me from Maine Fiddle Camp. Fire in my playing and fire in my overall musical life. I could not have afforded to go to camp without the help of the New Hampshire Scottish Music Club scholarship, and I'm very grateful for that support.
