Subject: Traditional music classes - Horsmonden From: Gavin A Date: 06 Jan 11 - 07:46 PM Traditional music classes - Gun & Spitroast, Horsmonden January classes are on the 12th and the 26th. Learn to play traditional tunes for music sessions and dancing in the company of other beginners. Play slowly and practice whatever's causing difficulty for you. Please tell your friends and especially anyone who's starting to play and needs to know! Join multi-instrumentalist Gavin Atkin at the Gun & Spitroast pub at Horsmonden, Kent (TN12 8HT) on the SECOND and FOURTH Wednesdays of each month from now until the summer, starting at 8pm. We'll have a class for an hour and a half, followed by whatever playing people feel like, or even just chatting. Admission is free. Typical instruments might be melodeon, fiddle, concertina, mandolin, whistle or banjo, but we'll be just as happy if you pitch up with a triangle, a saxophone or a piano. Reading music isn't necessary, though it definitely helps! See http://frittendenfestival.com for info. For information, call Gavin Atkin on 07985 522734 |
