Dulcimer Days Workshops

My first festival after returning from the Yanni Spring Tour will be the Roscoe Village Dulcimer Days in Coshocton, OH May 13 through 16. I had to turn in my workshop titles and descriptions today. Here they are:


1. Exercises in Core Rudiments (Intermediate)
We'll examine these fundamental arrangement tools and then apply them to the song "I'll Fly Away."
2. Song: Spring Peepers (Intermediate)
This 3 part tune is in D and requires at least a 15/14 hammer dulcimer.
3. Duet: Planxty Corcoran (Intermediate)
Randy Clepper will co-teach as we can divide the group, learn both parts, and then play them together.
4. Making Money, Making Music (all)
The what, where, when, why, how and how much of teaching your instrument to earn its keep. This is a demonstration class and all the material with the exception of amplification techniques will apply to other instruments as well.

If you're headed to this festival and trying to determine which workshops to attend, I'd be glad to answer any questions. You can post them in the guestbook or email me at dan@danlandrum.com

The songs we'll be learning are also on my CD's if anyone wants to get a head start. ¶ 10:25 AM
