Fiddlers ReStrung’s new members are chosen based on a balance of musical talent and personal maturity to enable them to balance a demanding performance schedule while maintaining high academic and extracurricular standards at school.
The five new members have started attending rehearsals and will learn many of the standard favorites that make up Fiddlers ReStrung’s repertoire. As they become more comfortable with the music and performance schedule of the group, the new members will more formally join the group’s performances over the course of the summer schedule.
