Bursary Fundraiser – Zoom Session: July 2024

Join Stewart and Ali for an evening of inspiring music and play along to some fab tunes on Zoom. Lots of favourites from NEFS, TFA and Online Workshops, with harmonies available just for fun! The session is free to join, but we are raising money for the Bursary Fund, which contributes small sums to people who would otherwise be unable to attend my workshops – whether JSArts courses, NEFS workshops or anything else I am running. A playlist and notation will be available below, and you can make a donation with a bank transfer or via PayPal – or if you’d prefer to send a cheque get in touch for the details.
Fri 26th July, 7.00 – 9.00 pm on Zoom

We had a lovely evening! Thank you to everyone who joined us live on Zoom, to all who have been able to make a donation. If you are interested in watching the Zoom call recording, please email Ali for the link.
Donations can be made to the Stewart Hardy Music Bursary Fund.
Bank transfers can be made into the usual account for North East Fiddle School or JSArts payments, and you can email Ali for full details if you don’t have them.
Or you can use PayPal (but we still pay PayPal fees for this, even though it is a donation).
Many thanks as always for your wonderful support.

During the session, all participants will be muted except for Stewart’s account. No-one will be able to hear you play, and you will only hear Stewart and Ali in your headphones.
If you haven’t attended a music workshop on Zoom before, here is a page of Zoom Workshop Tips. To get the most out of your experience, a strong and reliable internet connection, plus headphones or an external speaker are recommended.
