Fiddlesticks at Apuldram

The Fiddlesticks duo came to the Apuldram Centre (www.apuldram.org), near Chichester, on 28th July, to play their violins, sing, dance and generally create a good time! This included encouraging service users to conduct them - with hilarious results, to dance to their tunes and to accompany them on a variety of percussion instruments. What a lovely way to spend an hour or so. Thanks to them both:

The Fiddlesticks duo have known each other since they were very young, studying at the Preparatory division of Junior Guildhall School of Music and Drama. They perform a varied programme, from the baroque era to Eastern- European, British and Afro-American folk music.
Anya Birchall studied at the Escuela Superior De Musica, in Madrid and has completed a postgraduate diploma in performance at the Royal Academy of Music. Kokila Gillett studied violin at the Junior Guildhall School of Music and Drama and continued to study at the Royal College of Music. Both Anya and Kokila enjoy varied musical careers and regularly perform as soloists.
