Note re the Workshop Description Codes:
A given workshop may share several of the descriptions. E.g.,   "T, S" would mean the presenter selects and/or teaches many of the songs and everyone is encouraged to sing on all of them.    "T, J," would be pretty much the same thing except everyone is encouraged to play their instruments on all songs. "I, S," would mean something was taught for the purpose of group singing (e.g., a harmony workshop).
