05 Jun 12 - 06:17 PM (#3359741) Subject: Day Concertina Workshop with Rob Harbron From: GUEST,Fay Hield Soundpost is about to announce some largish news for the singers amongst us, but for those who like a squeeze, we've exploited a rare day off for Rob Harbron and seized upon the opportunity of running a day long concertina workshop. Short notice so please help us spread the word far and fast. Book through www.soundpost.org.uk Saturday 16 June 2012 | Concertina Day with Rob Harbron |Underbank Schoolrooms, Sheffield | £35 Rob Harbron will lead a one-day concertina workshop which will help players develop and consolidate their individual playing styles. Rob plays the English system but the day will be open to players of all systems and much of the day will be spent discussing ideas and technique which are not system-specific. The day will be suitable for players of all abilities, from basic through to intermediate and advanced. The day is concerned more with individual style and technique than playing together, but music for a few tunes which will be used throughout the day will be sent by email a few days beforehand. Session 1: 11.00am – 12:30pm Doing the basics well - making a good sound by thinking about posture, use of the bellows, tone, attack, dynamics, etc. LUNCH (BYO or local pubs) Session 2: 1:30pm – 3.00pm Developing your own style - looking at phrasing, groove, swing, ornamentation, variation, etc Session 3: 3:30pm – 5.00pm Putting it all together - shortcuts to harmony and accompaniment, techniques for building arrangements, and ways to perform more confidently. |
