Fiddelium (pronounced “fid-DELL-ium”) is a group of exceptional young Nanaimo-area musicians playing traditional and contemporary fiddle music with a twist. The performers range in age from 12 to 17 years, and come from a variety of musical training backgrounds including classical, jazz, and folk. Most of the music performed by the group is written or arranged for them by directors Geoff and Trish Horrocks and by Fiddelium members themselves. The group’s material is designed to showcase the individual talents of the performers as well as highlight the creative chemistry of the group as a whole.
In July 2015, Fiddelium was the featured soloist with the Strathcona Symphony Orchestra for the centennial celebrations of the City of Courtenay. They also appeared at the 2015 Father’s Day Ceilidh in Beacon Hill Park in Victoria. Other notable appearances include the CDC Telethon in 2014 and 2015, the Nanaimo Sings Festival in 2015, Bel Canto Choir’s 2015 Christmas concert series, and Festival Nanaimo 2016.
