    Concert and contradance with music from Lissa Schneckenburger, New England fiddle and song

    “World class fiddler …. far from just offering one dance tune after another, simple settings allow the true beauty of the music to shine through” – Sing Out

    The traditional music of New England can be as warm and comforting as a winter fire or as potent and exhilarating as a summer thunderstorm. Fiddler and singer Lissa Schneckenburger is a master of both moods, a winsome, sweet-voiced singer who brings new life to old ballads and a skillful, dynamic fiddler who captures the driving rhythm and carefree joy of dance tunes old and new.

    The event will begin with a short concert featuring traditional songs and airs followed by a contra dance with Ellie Knickman calling and live music by Lissa and guitarist Bethany Waickmann. There will be a short lesson for beginners and people who haven't been contra dancing in a while during the intermission.
