Fiddle players - step into the heart of Roma music culture with Janos Lang and Marius Otves, two Roma fiddle players from Hungary and Romania. Based in Glasgow, Janos is the creative director of Ando Glaso ("In Tune"), a cultural organisation dedicated to preserving and promoting Roma heritage. He has toured the world, fusing the fiery traditions of his Hungarian roots with Scottish and Irish influences. Marius, a master from Romania’s Bihar region, brings the raw authenticity of traditional Gypsy music, perfected through a lifetime of playing at weddings, burials, parties and other community events.
Other instruments welcome, however the workshop will be focused on fiddle styles and techniques.
