Sedona Stories with Dr. Kate Rose & Armand Ramirez of the Wild West Fiddle Project
Date:
Thursday, February 26 2026
A Free Interactive Performance Featuring live fiddle and guitar music, storytelling and a slideshow, this fun-for-all-ages interactive performance reveals how pioneer musicians, whose roots spanned old worlds and new terrains, integrated their traditions with those of neighboring communities. Connection with the land shaped these emerging traditions, where Celtic melodies and Hispanic rhythms interweave seamlessly. We will hear revived tunes showing how cultures converged to create a unique sound, reminding us to connect with the beauty of our state’s open skies, deep canyons, and vast forests. Dr. Kate Rose is a Flagstaff-based fiddler, researcher, and tradition-bearer leading the Wild West Fiddle Project and directing the nonprofit Wild Steps. Rose spent two years studying with fiddling farmers in County Clare, Ireland. Armand Ramirez, guitarist, is a master multi-genre player with decades of professional musicianship, an amazing ear, and a creative, danceable flair. His wide-ranging experience includes jazz, Celtic, classical, flamenco, folks traditions, and Latin music. Sedona Stories is a monthly free program of the Sedona Heritage Museum.
