Violinist and fiddler Nicolette Andres has created a career with breadth in teaching, performing—internationally, and she continues her own education with expert teachers all over the country and world.

Nicolette began studying the Hardanger fiddle (Hardingfele in Norwegian) with Rachel Nesvig in December 2020. Through a loan program from the Hardanger Fiddle Association of America, Nicolette was accepted to study and loan an instrument. Nicolette is passionate about oral traditions of music, and let that guide her to plan her first trip to Norway in May 2022 to visit the Ole Bull Academy. Nicolette now regularly performs Norwegian folk music for dance and listening in Boulder, Colorado on her own instrument, and continues to study the tradition.
