Grand Champion Fiddler Kimber Ludiker Graces FIDDLER MAGAZINE COVERFeature story inside talks about this young lady's entry into the world of fiddles - not through what we've come to expect, the highly acclaimed Suzuki Method but rather the old-fashioned way, handed down from one generation to the next. Kimber is a fourth-generation fiddler.Kimber talks to Fiddler Magazine about the National Oldtime Fiddlers' Contest, her family music and a lot more. The on-line version is only a teaser and to get the full story, one must purchase a copy of the current issue or be lucky enough to borrow a copy from a fiddling friend.
On the cover, Kimber is proudly holding her coveted Jonathan Cooper violin which is not fully hers yet. She still has more than half-way to go toward reaching her goal of $11,000. See the related story here. A special Kickstarter Campaign has been established to HELP KIMBER OWN HER SOUL MATE! It's the one and perfect true love here on Earth. Oh, and help Darol Anger get the 5-String back that he's been loaning Kimber for the last TWO YEARS!
