Elephant & Castle White Hill Lewes BN7 2DJ   

Alma are fiddle players Emily Askew, Sarah Jones and Nicola Lyons, and guitarist Adrian Lever. Inspired by fiddle traditions from England and across Europe, at the heart of Alma's music is the joyful sound of three fiddles playing in harmony. Coming from all corners of England, each member of Alma brings their own individual style and influences to the band, which they weave together into a bright and vibrant sound.
The workshop will be a chance to meet Alma, find out how the band puts sets together, learn tunes from England & beyond & create a new arrangement as a group. Suitable for intermediate & above fiddle players.
