Repertoire & Music Skills (Mixed Instruments)

12th – 14th June 2020
Parcevall Hall, Appletreewick, Skipton, N. Yorks BD23 6DG
5.00 pm start and finish time.

Join Stewart in the beautiful surroundings of Parcevall Hall in North Yorkshire for a weekend workshop learning new repertoire and improving music skills. Courses are open to players of any instrument (including transposing instruments) and are aimed at a broad range of abilities from intermediate to advanced. This workshop will focus on “How to Learn by Ear” with tips and techniques for improving this invaluable music skill – whether for use in future workshops, learning tunes from recordings or for picking up tunes more easily in your local sessions. Repertoire will be carefully chosen to facilitate the teaching of this skill, whilst adding interesting and exciting tunes to your repertoire.

The workshop will typically take between 8 and 12 people from Friday afternoon until Sunday afternoon. The residential weekend fee of £335 covers all food, tuition, daytime refreshments and two nights single occupancy accommodation, some of which is en suite (for medical reasons, then first come first served). The non-residential rate is £250 and includes everything except bed & breakfast. Sheet music and mp3 files of the tunes covered are sent out in advance, and recordings of arrangements created during the course are sent on to you afterwards.

For further information or to book your place on this course, please email Ali (jsarts@stewarthardy.co.uk)

Informal play-along session on Zoom. Lots of fab tunes just for fun, with some extra harmonies thrown in! The notation is provided, with lots of tunes from the North East Fiddle School Live Tunes selection. Quite a few of these are also used for the Friday evening Online Sessions in Harmony, and harmonies from those will be provided.
There is no charge – donations will be accepted for the Stewart Hardy Music Bursary Fund, which contributes small amounts to individuals to help them afford our courses and workshops.
Details of the tune list can be sent by Ali on request. You don’t have to be attending NEFS, online workshops or JSArts courses to come along and you don’t have to make a donation – it’s open to everyone, so please tell any musician friends you think might be interested.
