Friday May 15 - Irish Traditional Music Sessions. From 8:00 -9:00 there is a slow session. This is a traditional Irish session in all ways except one: the tempo. We will play common session tunes at a slower than normal pace, so that beginning and intermediate players can more easily learn the tunes and join in the session. Also great for experienced players who are picking up another instrument!
A regular session sponsored by the Irish Center will run after that from 9:00 - On.
For more information contact Kirsten Erwin at swampkat@martnet.com or 610-517-1462.
