Tonight I took a workshop with Sean Cleland, director of the Irish Music School of Chicago, all about learning Irish tunes. It was pretty cool. One of the best workshops I've had at the school. I'm not sure how many specifics I learned, but I got to play a lot, I felt like he listened to my questions, and he left me curious to learn more, in a proactive way. Very inspiring.
I can't remember the name of the tune that we learned, but we spent an hour and a half learning it from beginning to end. I was the only banjo player. There was one fiddle player, one concertina player and one uke player.
OK. Onward to more Irish fiddle tunes.
Later,
J
