OldTime Elements

Hi there!

This is series of four workshops on playing traditional American Oldtime music.

All traditional instruments welcome, suitable for all levels

Learn some in-depth knowledge about old-time music and meet other players in an inclusive and supportive environment.

As well as a new tune every week you will also learn about the roles of the instruments in a jam session, the common rythyms in old-time music, tune structures and families , picking up tunes by ear, how to develop a good "groove", phrasing , getting good tone and how to practice effectively.

This is a four workshop series with some progression from class to class, so I recommend attending all the sessions if you can.

Each class will conclude with a moderately paced jam session

Places will be limited so please book.

Cost $40 per class / $160 for the lot
