BECKY ROSS, fiddle (Gaithersburg, MD) was classically trained on violin during her schooldays but was drawn to begin playing again in 1991 after discovering Celtic fiddle music. She plays regularly for Scottish and English Country dancing. Becky is known for her rich tone and sensitive emotional connection to the music, whether that is a sorrowful Scottish lament, a majestic march or a driving reel.

Becky performs with Liz Donaldson and Colleen Reed as the dance band Elegant Echoes and they have released two CDs; "English Echoes, English Country Dance Favorites" and “English Echoes II, More English Country Dance Favorites”. She has released two CDs of Celtic music on fiddle and hammered dulcimer with her late husband Bill Mitchell; "On The Brink" (2002) and "Silver Lining" (2007). She joined Karin Loya (cello) and Julie Gorka (piano) on the CD "A Sheep at the Wheel" and she was part of the 18^th century music trio Tasker's Chance on the CD “On the Map”. 

Becky is a founding Board member and current President of the Potomac Valley Scottish Fiddle Club, a non-profit group promoting Scottish fiddle music. Buy Becky's CDs at the Potomac Valley Scottish Fiddle Club webstore.
