Fiddle Mass at St Anthony’s Church

Fred Leroux is having a “Fiddle Mass” at St. Anthony’s Church in Apple Hill on Sunday, Oct. 25. All fiddlers are encouraged to come and join in the service. The music starts at 10:00am and mass at 10:30. Breakfast is served from 9:00 to noon (free will offering).

If anyone needs music, he or she can get it by writing to lochieler@yahoo.ca and we will send it. Most of the pieces are standards and many are on the CD.  The list is as follows:

1. Hundred Thousand Welcomes
2. Mairi’s Wedding, Hundred Pipers
