This school program features Pierre Schryer, Canadian Fiddling Champion, and Martine Billette, step dancer, in concert with the Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony. Together they will look at folk influences on classical music and share their joy for music with this young audience, performing French Canadian and Scottish Reels. Pierre truly captivates young audiences with his energy, genuine warmth and ability to play in any style from Irish to Scottish and Quebecois to Appalachian.
