Barb Byroft Celtic Fiddle Lessons
If you have learnt violin in the past, or are new to the fiddle, I can teach you to play Celtic tunes in the Celtic style. Along the way you will learn to read music and to pick up tunes by ear. 
My Waipu studio overlooks the Caledonian Park in Waipu and Auckland lessons are in the 100 year old Oratia Church Hall. Both provide a relaxed, pleasant environment for learning.
I have many years' experience as a registered teacher, a classical orchestral violinist and a professional Celtic musician.
All music taught is Celtic in origin (Irish, Scottish) for beginners or experienced violinists.  
Phone me for details on 027 8149203
