Adult Melody Playing with a Flatpick: 4-week series (week 4)

7-8pm – Adult Melody Playing with a Flatpick 4-Week Course with Sam Vogt

Join us for a four part workshop series on melody playing with a flatpick in traditional music. Do you have a mandolin, guitar, or bouzouki and are looking for some solid methods for improving speed, accuracy, and improvisational skills? In this series we'll examine ways of relieving tension, improving coordination between the left and right hand, and methods for unleashing your natural ability to improvise. We'll take examples from Irish fiddle tunes, bluegrass, and old-time music. A basic familiarity with your instrument will be helpful, but we can start anywhere.
