JOHN KIRKPATRICK
ANGLO CONCERTINA WORKSHOP
Places £30
Saturday 16th. September 2006
10.45 a.m.- 4.45 p.m.
The Lewes Arms, Mount Place, Lewes,
East Sussex BN7 1YH

        John Kirkpatrick is a superb singer, great writer, fine dancer & the best English squeezer bar none. He is one of the great solo acts on the folk scene & has played with the Albions, Steeleye Span, Brass Monkey, Band of Hope & many more.
        
The workshop will be an intensive look at playing the Anglo concertina in the 'melody + chords' style, aimed at players with some experience. Using the simplest of tunes John will cover the three-chord trick in the 'home' key and then push on into chord patterns for as many other keys as time will allow.
