Performance & Events

Chad joins these Ottawa Valley Step Dancers from the competitions of the 70s & 80s  who show they've still got it! 

Each year, Chad's fiddle & stepdance students have the opportunity to perform in a Celtic Christmas  show for residents of a retirement community in Ottawa, and our June Recital which showcases students' accomplishments over the season of lessons. Watch for us at local charity and community events during the year as well! 

Check our our recent Virtual Recital.

 Our very first Virtual Recital.

 "Chad Wolfe's new album is a modern twist on the Old Time Canadian Fiddle style. With a clean virtuosic performance, the arrangements are sophisticated and smooth. A brilliant album by one of Canada's finest and kindest fiddlers and stepdancers."
- Celina Marie DiCecca (creator of the Great Canadian Fiddle Show and Toronto Fiddle Collective)

"A wonderful collection of traditional and contemporary tunes, all played with such great feel and danceability, which is increasingly rare to hear in new recordings being released. The tunes are tastefully arranged into medleys that are innovative while still maintaining their deep roots in the Ottawa Valley. My favourite part of the album is the ongoing interplay between fiddle and piano—a signature sound of the Canadian tradition, executed masterfully by Chad Wolfe and Mark Allen."
- Kyle Burghout, North American Irish Fiddle Champion   

Chad's new recording, "Clogs & Jigs & Reels ...Oh My!" is designed to guide stepdancers of all levels down their own yellow brick roads. It contains 60 tunes, including exciting new pieces, and breathes new life into some old favourites. The tracks are organized for dancers to easily navigate through the variety of tempos of clogs, jigs, reels, and medleys. In addition, each of the 28 tracks also have up to 6 digitally rendered tempos that are on an accompanying Flash Drive (194 tracks tracks in all to practice or perform with)! 

   The slower tempos are also perfect for fiddlers to learn these great tunes! 

   Both the CD/Flash Drive and Digital Versions are now available.
