Strings Across the Sky; Andrea Hansen, musical director
Since 1988, Strings Across the Sky has taught fiddling in Northern Canada to Aboriginal, Métis and Inuit youth. After only a few days of lessons, students perform in public gaining a new sense of self-esteem. Since many of today’s players are beginners performing before an audience for the first time, what happens on stage is pure magic.
