Subject: RE: Camp New Harmony: 2015-16 Workshop signup From: GUEST,cris Johnson Date: 09 Dec 15 - 06:57 PM Hi Joe, I would like to schedule to Swing Night performance practices in the dance hall at 3:00 to 3:50 and 5:00 to 6:00 on Saturday. I would also like to schedule 12:00 to 1:00 and 1:00 to 2:00 Friday in the Dance Hall for Swing Night pre-practice. I would also like to pre-practice on Saturday in the Carpeted room 2:00 to 3:00 pm. I know that will cover my schedule. If you could combine Saturday performance practice to 4:00 to 6:00 and move Yael's to 3:00 it would be helpful. I know that I will probably be playing for Yael's workshop any how. Thanks for all that you do to make the Camp experience a fun, rich experience.
Here's a message about the swing dance from Karen Broder, copied from the Harmony List:
> From: Karen Broder > Subject: [Harmony] Camp New Harmony Swing Dance singers > To: harmony@sffmc.org > > Cris Johnson and I are organizing the Swing Dance, which is scheduled for Saturday Night, the last night of camp. We have a dozen singers lined up and have room for a few more. We are aiming to have most songs collated before Camp New Harmony. If you are interested in singing, we need to know your song choice and key. We are looking for danceable, up tempo swing songs. Please contact Cris Johnson, who will be the band leader. His email is (available thru Joe Offer, joe@mudcat.org) There will be some optional rehearsal time with Cris if you need it, and later a mandatory run through with the band. More details to be posted at camp.If you have questions, concerns or solutions, contact me or Cris. Looking forward to some swingin' singin' playin' and dancing! |
Subject: RE: Camp New Harmony: 2015-16 Workshop signup From: Joe Offer Date: 16 Dec 15 - 02:05 AM OK, I think I have things up-to-date. Workshop leaders, please check the schedules above (click) to make sure I've assigned you to the appropriate place and time. If you'd like to sign up to lead a workshop, please check the schedules and choose a time and space that's open. Thanks. -Joe Offer- |
Subject: RE: Camp New Harmony: 2015-16 Workshop signup From: GUEST,Ray Bierl Date: 16 Dec 15 - 03:38 PM Joe, If it's not too late, I've been asked to do a flatpicking workshop, and I'd like to do a song workshop as well. To wit: 1: A Dozen Ways To Work A Flatpick: accompanying songs on guitar. 2: Pete Seeger's 'Story Songs': Songs from his excellent 1961 album of that name. I'll be there Wednesday and Thursday. Sorry to be so late with this. Thanks! -Ray
-Joe- P.S. I had to shorten your flatpick title - not enough space on the schedule. |
Subject: RE: Camp New Harmony: 2015-16 Workshop signup From: GUEST,diplocase Date: 16 Dec 15 - 09:39 PM Joe - I seem to have contributed to an abundance, not to say a superfluity of dangerous, wily, heroic, and otherwise obstreperous women in the titles of this year's workshops. May I alter my Thurs 4pm workshop to "trad songs of Bad Decisions"? The idea would be to bring traditional songs in which the story hinges on someone knowing better but doing something dangerous/naive/foolhardy anyway. Sometimes it works out, sometimes not. This workshop is not limited to ballads. thank you! Casey Casebeer

Anyway, I would like to lead a workshop on "getting to know your guitar fretboard" on Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday. I'm also available to get together with you over the next few days to help work on the schedule, unless it's a one person job, it doesn't really matter. - Elly (414) 342-1552

Sat in the corner, Eating a Christmas pie; He put in his thumb, And pulled out a plum, And said 'What a good boy am I!' I have to give myself a little self-affirmation to do today's scheduling work. What I really want to do is take a nap before I head off to sing at Midnight Mass, and then go home and sleep a few short hours before heading back to sing at 7:30 AM. Christmas is another word for Cruelty to Choirsingers.... -Joe- |
Subject: RE: Camp New Harmony: 2015-16 Workshop signup From: GUEST,Susan Wageman Date: 25 Dec 15 - 02:40 PM Hi Joe - I had requested a double slot for the "Songwriter's Circle Works-in-Progress" in Yellow Room 22 on January 1 from 4 to 5:50. It seems to me that there are quite a few songwriters at camp. I wanted to ensure time to talk about the works in progress and support each other in our songwriting. Could you please add add "Songwriter's Circle Works-in-Progress" in Yellow Room 22 from 5 to 5:50? - Susan

Subject: RE: Camp New Harmony: 2015-16 Workshop signup From: GUEST,Kathrine Gardner Date: 29 Dec 15 - 10:10 AM I'd like to do Musical Theater song swap on Wednesday, preferably 2 hrs. consecutive in the carpeted room. Looks like the only time available is lunchtime, but that's OK I guess. Alternatively, 1 hr at Reuben's house. Please don't conflict w/ other popular singing workshops. Thanks! Hi, Kathrine. I put you in Yellow Room 22 late afternoon. Nothing available midday. -Joe- |
Subject: RE: Camp New Harmony: 2015-16 Workshop signup From: Joe Offer Date: 04 Jan 16 - 01:51 AM I got home from camp this evening. We had fewer people, but still a lot of campers. I think some stayed away because camp was a few days later than usual - January 3 is the latest day we end camp. It's all based on what day of the week Christmas falls on. Can't say I understand the formula for determining the dates of camp. I think some people stayed away because we warned them that construction at the camp would make it a bit harder to get around this year. It was more difficult, but we made it work. SF Folk Music Club members, feel free to post any comments or suggestions below. Thanks for coming. I had a great time. -Joe- This is the 2015-16 workshop signup thread.
