String Band Class

$180

with Ben Masterson

Calendar Feb 5, 2025 at 6:30 pm, runs for 13 weeks

Co-Instructor: Joe Thrift

Have you been practicing on the banjo, fiddle, bass, or guitar and have been itching to get together with some other folks to make some music in a relaxed community setting? Then this class will be a perfect fit!

We will compile a list of traditional string band tunes that everyone is familiar with at the beginning of the semester so you will have plenty of time to dust them off before we play them together. We’ll be focusing on playing at a good danceable rhythm, phrasing, and intonation as we become more proficient at making music as a group.The instructor plays the instruments listed above, but if you play another traditional instrument, you’re very welcome to join in! Advanced beginner/intermediate skill level.

This is an adult level class but is open to students with a basic understanding of their instrument. Younger students may need to be accompanied by an adult.

What to bring: String instrument of choice, notebook and/or recording device.

Prerequisites: Beginner level knowledge of your instrument. Feel free to email us if you have questions! 

Please note: 

This is a 12-week class taught over 13 weeks.

First class: February 5, Spring Break: March 12, Last Class: April 30

Tentative Final Concert Date: May 6

Payment plan available: $25 deposit plus 5 payments of $25.00, paid weekly. Final payment of $30.00.
