The following is a letter written by Fiddlesticks, and published by Equestria Daily two days after her performance.



A letter to all my fans,

Most of you know me by the name Octavia. However, that is not my real name. I regret to inform you that I have been lying to you for my entire career. My real name is Fiddlesticks, and I am a country pony from a family of farmers. I apologize to all of you for lying. I was afraid that a farmer would not be accepted as a classical cellist. However, I have grown tired of lying. My lies have hurt my family, and strained my dearest friendship. I understand if you are upset with me, but I hope that where I come from will not cause you to hold any prejudices about my music. I will continue to play my cello in the same manner that you have been listening to all these years, but I will also be performing with my fiddle. I hope to break preconceptions about what certain kinds of ponies have interest in, and possibly help you discover new interests of your own.

Sincerely,
Fiddlesticks
