Hey Y'all!
We're ready if you are vaccinated (both doses) and wear a mask due to the continued highly contagious nature of COVID-19. A small group of us has continued to meet online for much of the pandemic, and since summer have been meeting in person. We're ready to open it up to more of you, if you'd like to join us. The session is held on third Wednesdays at the Old Songs Community Arts Center 37 South Main St.,
Voorheesville, NY 12186 7:30-9:00 PM Cost: $5 donation to Old Songs, Inc. Leader: traditional Irish fiddler Hilary SchraufWe'll be in the big upstairs room and we will spread our chairs out. Feel free to bring a music stand. There are some available to use. Learning by ear is preferred but over the years we've found that using sheet music to give everyone a jump start helps tremendously.
Below you'll find links to tune pages, and the three set lists we've been using. You're welcome to join us at 7:30 tonight (Wednesday, November 17) to play tunes off of the lists. Cost is $5. Led by Hilary Schrauf, Irish Fiddle. Please all stay safe and wash your hands.
