About the Artist

Kelly is a professional fiddle player from Louisiana and has been teaching The Art of Fiddling and the Mystique of Louisiana in Artist in Residence programs throughout Oregon for 16 years.

Teaching Philosophy

Music is valuable in and of itself, encompassing mind, body, and feeling. It is universal, cultural and individual, an integral part of our human experience. My program opens the door and allows everyone to enter into the world of music.

Testimonial

This is all about enriching the lives of our children and making the world a better place for them...and for us.

Program Description

This is an amazing string teaching program residency designed for an entire school with the objective of students acquiring in a very short time (4 sessions including a recital) enough basic skills on the fiddle (violin) to be able to solo perform a three chord 2 step fiddle tune with guitar accompaniment. In addition students will learn enough sound effects to musically illustrate a short narrated folk story.

FIDDLES ARE SUPPLIED FOR EVERY STUDENT BY KELLY THIBODEAUX FOR USE DURING THE SESSIONS.
