Fiddle Orchestra of Western Massachusetts

The Fiddle Orchestra of Western Massachusetts is an amateur orchestra made up mostly of fiddle players. The orchestra gives fiddlers and other musicians the opportunity to play together as amateurs under the guidance of a professional musician in order to improve their skills, more deeply enjoy their hobby, nourish camaraderie, and share their enjoyment of music with the community. The Orchestra is a member-run non-profit managed by co-founder Becky Shannon.
