Abstract: For the generic two parameter family of $C^r$ circle diffeomorphisms of a general form we prove that the bifurcation arcs which correspond to Liouville irrational rotation numbers are $C^1$ smooth. As a consequence, we give an explicit formula for the derivative of all non-resonance arcs. Results of Arnol'd, Herman, and others give greater smoothness for a more restricted class of rotation numbers using KAM techniques.
