8-week group class series @ Asheville Music School

Class will emphasize:

  • building repertoire of traditional songs and tunes
  • learning the roll of folk instruments in context of the ensemble
  • folk style "jam" techniques and basic improvisation to blend well with the group based on individual skill level

Novice to intermediate players welcome. This class is not suitable for total beginners.
