Concertina I: Beginners/Basic (Winter 2020)
with Doug Barr
Tuesday, January 28, 2020 at 6:00PM

Shetler Studios
244 West 54th Street
Between 8th Ave and Broadway
New York, NY 10019
(12th floor)


8 weekly sessions beginning Tuesday, January 28, 2020

The Beginners/Basic class will be oriented toward beginners on the Anglo concertina. It will also be suited for those who can play a few notes and even a few tunes. We will learn simple tunes, review scales and ornamentation, and cover the basic fingering choices unique to the instrument and can sometimes be confusing to the beginner. We will also be listening to selected recordings of the great artists. Tunes will be taught by ear; standard notation and ABC will also be provided. If you need help learning to read music, we'll cover that, too. All ages are welcome. Bring your concertina, some kind of audio recorder, and be ready to have some fun!

No concertina? No problem! We have a limited number of concertinas available to rent for a small fee.

Please note this class is not at Irish Arts Center | Location: Shetler Studios, 244 West 54th Street Between 8th Ave. and Broadway, New York, NY 10019 (12th floor)
