SUMMARY:Daniel Lapp's Fiddle Celebration Tour
DESCRIPTION:Entrance for this concert in the Alix Goolden Performance Hall is at 900 Johnson Street \n\n\n\nIt’s been over 20 years since Daniel Lapp released an album of his own fiddle playing. Of course he hasn’t been sitting idle and quite the opposite. Since his last fiddle album\, Reunion\, released in 2002\, he’s taught the fiddle to hundreds of students\, toured and recorded with his electronic band\, Lappelectro\, as well as playing live shows with Rickie Lee Jones\, Gord Downie\, Elvis Costello and Lou Reed to name a few. He’s been around and off the continent many times and has developed an innovative program for Contemporary Music at the Victoria Conservatory of Music of which he’s the Artistic Director. His annual Home For Christmas Concert which features his 180 students has grown to two full houses in the Royal Theatre and will celebrate 23 years in 2025. No\, he hasn’t been sitting around. During this time he’s also composed hundreds of fiddle tunes\, collected 3000 original BC Tunes from 300 composers and started a new record label called Woodbox Records to promote\, preserve and archive BC’s 150 year history of fiddle music. Now it’s time for him to play and record and he’s thrilled to share the new album with you onstage with 3 of his former students\, all world travellers in their own right. And he just turned 60! Come celebrate a new era of Daniel Lapp! \n\n\n\n\nVenue Accessibility\nThe 900 Johnson Street entrance is at ground-level and wheelchair accessible. There is an elevator located on the first floor: as you enter the building go down the ramp to your right and the elevator is on the left at the bottom. Priority seating can be provided at concerts if you have accessibility issues; please contact the Venues Department . Wheelchair accessible restrooms are located on the main floor\, beside the lobby in the Reception and Registration area.
