Dulcimer Workshops with Bing Futch
Date:
May 17, 2014
Time:
1:00 PM - 2:15 PM CDT
Event Description:
Musician Bing Futch will be offering two dulcimer workshops while in Winnsboro.
Two Crooked Fiddle Tunes Walk Into A Bar: Crooked tunes drive dancers crazy, because those off-kilter bars of beats throw them off their groove. But they are great fun to play. In this workshop, we'll tackle two crooked fiddle tunes; tunes in 4/4 time that feature strange little extra measures of 2/4 thrown in. They're highly addictive and usually have killer riffs that make for lots of fun jamming, once everyone gets the hang of it. We'll engage ear-training through learning the tunes by hearing and imitating at first. Then, we'll look at the music and see what makes each tune crooked and why.
I Got Those Mountain Dulcimer Blues:
Woke up this mornin', all my dulcimer played was the blues
Woke up this mornin', all my dulcimer played was the blues
You'll get scales and chords and riffs, baby
and you'll sho' 'nuff learn to groove!
$25 each or both for $40. Call 972-934-2643 for information or to reserve a space.
1:00 pm and 2:15 pm
