She has an under gradate degree in Art and a PhD. in Biochemistry. Karen first visited the Ole Bull Academiet in Voss in 2016 to take part in a master Class Hardanger International in Norway. She is an accomplished Handanger fiddle play as well as a having constructed several instruments herself starting in 2012. Last year she was awarded a fellowship from the American-Scandinavian Foundation for "Hardanger Fiddle Construction Acoustical Adjustments" that enabled her to study with Hardanger fiddle makers Sigvald R rlien and Wiebke L ders at Ole Bull Akademiet in Voss\, Norway\, April 4 to May 5\, 2018. After spending many hundred hours in each instrument's construction\, the result is a visually stunning fiddle. However\, getting each fiddle to make the best sound remained a mystery to her. She will tell us about what took place during her month in Norway: experiencing the dedication to the art of fiddle-making\, being embedded with more traditional folk musicians and folk dancers\, and most importantly what the "TTT" she learned from a friend means and how it applies to her instruments and her music!!
