Fiddlesticks Fun

What a summer it’s been for Fiddlesticks Music!


From late May until now, we’ve been singing, dancing, and drumming our way across Birmingham, bringing people together from all walks of life into one joyful circle of music. Every time we sing with children, we’re shining the light of Christ in our community, breaking down barriers and building connections among families of many different stories, cultures, and resources. This summer alone, we’ve touched hundreds of lives through the power of music.


Highlights from the season:

  • In May, our Fiddlesticks Family Sing-along Concert filled the Great Hall with over 70 voices, young and old, singing in harmony.
  • In June, we celebrated the National Day of Making at the McWane Science Center by making music together and helping little ones craft their own instruments.
  • We returned to McWane to mark the 10th Anniversary of Itty Bitty Magic City with joyful songs and play.
  • At the Birmingham Folk Festival, our classes at the Avondale Library had children and caregivers singing and moving together all afternoon.
  • We brought free demo classes to the Homewood Library, introducing even more families to the joy of Music Together®.
  • And all spring, we partnered with UAB Head Start, bringing music-making to families who might not otherwise have that opportunity.


At Fiddlesticks Music Together®, we provide weekly 45-minute classes for children from infancy through age eight, following a research-based curriculum designed to nurture musical growth and create meaningful connections. But our calling is much bigger than that. Our doors are open to families of all identities, abilities, and ages—because music, and the love that pours out through All Saints, is for everyone.

Fiddlesticks Music hosted its largest single-day outreach event to date—a joyful Singalong Concert for families in our program and the wider community. Despite the rain, we gathered in the Great Hall, where 163 attendees filled the space with music, laughter, and connection. Families spread out on blankets, singing along to a live music concert designed especially for children ages 0–5. The atmosphere was electric with joy; parents, caregivers, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and friends all joined in, creating a beautiful tapestry of voices and generations.The sense of community in the room was palpable. All ages and abilities were welcomed and celebrated. It was a moment of pure musical magic. Participants also had the opportunity to connect with staff and learn more about the All Saints Choir School and other All Saints programming for children and families. These conversations helped deepen relationships and open doors for continued musical and spiritual growth. Thank you to everyone who helped make this event so lovely and unforgettable. Here's to many more moments of shared music and joy!
