He, along with Canadian fiddlers Ashley MacIsaac (Cape Breton), April Verch (Ontario), Samantha Robichaud (New Brunswick), Andre Brunet (Quebec), and Sierra Noble (Manitoba) represented different Canadian regions on stage to perform the fiddle style of their region. They were joined by Alberta fiddler Calvin Vollrath, who composed most of the tunes for this twelve minute set and played with the orchestra. Lapp has since released a number of albums featuring an experimental brand of folk fused with jazz and electronic influences. He continued to give lessons privately, as well as holding international festival workshops. He later founded the "House of Music" in Victoria, B.C..
