Daniel Lapp

Daniel Lapp is collaborating with the young and talented pianist, Emmett Hodgins for a live, online set of BC Fiddle Tunes and stories. After his first tour of Scotland and the Shetland Islands with Spirit of the West 30 years ago, Daniel came home to BC and started collecting original BC fiddle tunes. On July 15, you can hear some of the over 1000 tunes live, online for the very first time. Daniel will also share stories of the composers who come from all corners of the province – welders, teachers, fisherman and farmers who have created the world’s youngest fiddle tradition over the past 100 years.
