Founded in 2015, Big Fiddle Little Fiddle is a tea party of players with diverse backgrounds in the performance of traditional, improvisatory, baroque, classical and new music. We bring it all to the table in our exploration of Celtic, Scandinavian, Quebecois, Old-time, Middle Eastern modal and contemporary folk styles. Our creative path follows the unique sonic possibilities of the cello and violin together and their limitless potential for interchangeable musical roles and euphoric dialogue.
 
Lead by cellist, Louise Godwin and fiddler, Jessica Foot, Big Fiddle Little Fiddle is both a performance duo and a project vehicle for creative experimentation with a growing number of collaborators. Jess and Lou also bring their music-making approach to music camps and workshops across Victoria.
