4 weeks beginning September 9/10
Sign up for classes here. Be sure to specify which class you're signing up for.
Cost: $160 for eight
classes
If
you'd like to take the class but money is tight, please
don't hesitate to let me know and we can work something
out... I really want everyone who's interested in Irish
music to be able to take these classes.
FALL CLASSES - I've been teaching these tune learning
classes for 14 years and I feel they've been successful in
helping people build their repertoires of Irish tunes. The
other main goal of the classes is to help everyone get
better at learning and playing by ear, and from the
feedback I've gotten, the classes have been very
successful in that as well.
I'm scheduling the classes a
little differently this fall, putting the earlier East
Coast class on Tuesdays instead of on Thursdays. I had to
reschedule the Thursday class several times last year to
allow travel time for my out of town concerts. Hopefully
that won't happen with the classes now moving to Tuesdays.
Class 1 - Tuesdays, Sept. 9 to
Oct. 28, 7pm
Eastern (4pm Pacific)
Class 2 - Tuesdays,
Sept. 9 to Oct. 28, 7pm Pacific
Class 3 - Wednesdays, Sept. 10 to Oct. 29, 7pm Pacific
Email to sign up or for
more information. $160
for eight classes.
These classes are only
melody, we won't be getting into chords or accompaniment.
The tunes will be taught by ear, with lots of
repetition... we won't be using written music.
PRIVATE LESSONS on Irish fiddle – In
September and October I'll be teaching private lessons on
Zoom or at my place in northeast Olympia on Wednesday
afternoons.
These are 55-minute lessons
focusing on bowing, phrasing, ornaments, etc... how
to make music out of all those notes. You can
take a one-time lesson or sign up for more.
Cost is $60 per 55-minute lesson.
