Work Songs are music for everyday life! This class will focus on learning the music from Scotland, Ireland, Wales, and the Isle of Man that accompanied everyday work of all kinds. Join us to learn these lively and lovely tunes and investigate a little of the work that went with them!
This class is open to harpists and other instrumentalists of all ages and abilities except early beginners.
For an example, see a traditional waulking song while working wool, from the BBC HERE.
Schedule a week or two, or three! Or, just sprinkle some classes in between other commitments.
