Kimberley Sessions

Kimberley Fraser's online fiddle lessons. Highly recommended!

 

JC's ABC TuneFinder

Comprehensive tune search. Tunes are in multiple formats including GIFs, PDFs, and MIDIs.

 

Thesession.org

Best place online for looking up tunes. Lots of discussion of tunes, and also cross referenced to what albums have the tune you're looking for.

 

cbfiddle.com

Amazing resource for those of us that play Cape Breton Music. Hundreds of Cape Breton albums are listed with the tunes that are played on each track. And if you click on a tune it will show the first line of the sheet music and has a midi recording of that first line. Thousands of tunes!

 

CapeBretonLive.com

Cape breton live began as a website that would broadcast a new show from Cape Breton Island each week. New shows are much rarer these days, but all the past shows are available to listen to. Pipers, listen to some fiddle!

 

Beithe Publishing

Run by Tim Cummings, this is a real live publishing house "devoted to injecting fresh, new repertoire into the realm of Scottish bagpiping." Tim's fighting the good fight to bring great music to all of us playing our one octave beasties.

 

PEI Fiddle Camp

Run by Fiddler Ward MacDonald. I can't recommend this highly enough. Yes, it may be far from you, but you won't find an event that you will learn more at. Classes for smallpipes, fiddle, guitar, whistles, piano, accordion, mandolin, banjo, dancing and more. You will not be dissapointed.

 

APNA

APNA aims to serve as a clearinghouse and source of information for and about bagpipers and bagpipes in North America. It is particularly focused on reaching those pipers playing pipes other than the Great Highland Bagpipes, both bellows and mouth blown, AND pipers who are interested in using the GHB in ways that do not conform to current solo and band playing standards.
