Three members of the Nelson String Quartet came to visit RI Fiddle Project as a part of our "Things with Strings" series last week.
The Nelson String Quartet's members are all Community MusicWorks graduates, now at different colleges, who still get together to create and perform great music, including some of their own arrangements.
One of these arrangements was created especially for their visit to us last week: we heard a trio version of Swallowtail Jig, with a unique baseline for our students to learn.
Students had lots of questions for the Nelson Quartet - hopefully we'll see them again soon with all four members!
Things with Strings continues next week with a visit from Persian musician Nima Jan, who will be bringing his
kemanche to share with students, families and visitors.
