Ryan McKasson Workshop on March 5th

Liz Donaldson will host Ryam McKasson for a workshop at her home in Bethesda on March 5th, open to all, but with a discount for fiddle club members. Space is limited, so RSVP.

Ryan writes:
Scottish Fiddler's Guide to the Galaxy: how make magic happen with the bow and spawn a fauna of ornamentation on the fingerboard - and feel good doing it. Ryan will teach tunes from the Scottish tradition (Strathspeys, Reels, Jigs, Slow Airs), focusing on bowings and ornamentation. Ryan likes to teach music, not just tunes! Any instruments are welcome, but some of the lesson will be spent on fiddle specific bowings. Ryan teaches all tunes aurally, so sheet music will be available after the workshop, not during. The workshop will be taught at an intermediate to advanced skill level.
