About Celeste

A lifelong fiddler, Celeste has over twelve years of teaching experience. She is a five-time national champion at the National Old Time Fiddle Contest, the 2023 RockyGrass Fiddle champion, the 2019 Walnut Valley Old Time Fiddle champion, a two-time Rocky Mountain Regional Fiddle Champion, and a multiple-time Colorado State fiddle champion in her division. Some of her students have gone on to win state and national titles themselves. She performs and teaches within a variety of genres, including Bluegrass, Western swing, traditional swing, hot jazz, country, and more. What students have said about Celeste: "Celeste has a gift of honing in on exactly what I need, conveying these insights in a way that makes sense, and ultimately bringing out the best in me. I end up sounding better right then and there." -Lisa P. "Celeste is always able to hear and see the areas in a song that need basics reinforced for me, and explains technique in a way that I totally understand. She is so calm and kind! I feel that my learning curve has accelerated with Celeste's help." -Sharon W. "Celeste is THE best teacher I’ve ever had for anything. She’s very calm, and lessons are relaxed, fun, productive and never boring. Her method is exceptionally effective, without stress or frustration. I HIGHLY recommend her for both people who have played music and those with absolutely no musical experience." -Melissa M. "Celeste has been teaching my son since he was 6 years old. He's now almost 16 and still excited to work with her every week. She's taught him how to be a well-rounded, independent learner and constantly develops his creativity. Celeste is kind, very patient, and knowledgeable with a lifetime of experience in fiddle music." -Rachel Q.

About the lesson

Have you always dreamed of playing the fiddle? Or maybe you already play and you're interested in making faster progress?

Whether you're brand new to fiddling or have decades of experience, I'd love to support you on your musical path.

I specialize in teaching fiddle by ear to folks of all ages and levels, including first-time players, adult learners, kids learning from home, and long-time musicians.

As a teacher, my mission is to pass on traditional fiddle styles and make them accessible to people of all ages and experience levels.

My sole teaching focus is fiddling. It's my priority to pass on these traditional acoustic genres with authenticity, all the way down to each bow pattern within a tune. I specialize in teaching by ear to convey the nuances that allow you to sound like a real deal fiddler (not a classical player). I use fun, sequential fiddle tunes to help you hone your abilities and develop new skills.

I have extensive experience working with all ages and levels, from brand-new beginners all the way through advanced fiddlers. Whether you're just picking up the fiddle for the first time or you've been playing for years, you'll find a clear path to your musical goals (and musical joy!) in our lessons together.

Lessons with Celeste are amazing. She is very professional, knowledgeable, and makes me feel so much more confident and comfortable in my fiddle playing. She's helped me learn so many great Fiddle tunes and my technique has gotten so much better since taking lessons. I highly recommend lessons with Celeste.

Celeste is a great fiddle teacher! She helped me get out of some bad playing habits and also helped me a lot with my fiddle confidence. I've learned so much and even played in my first fiddle contest thanks to her encouragement!
