If you live near New York City, you might be interested in an 8-week course (21JAN to 11MAR) on Irish folk song that I'll be teaching at The Irish Arts Center on Thursday evenings between 21JAN and 11MAR.

Registration details are available from the Center at 212-757-3318. I understand the catalogue with this and many other music courses is being printed now.

An open Singers' Circle will follow at 7PM so, if you're in town on a Thursday evening, please stop by for a song.

Anyone who lives near Sydney is advised to stay there. The weather is likely to be better.

All the best, Dan Milner
