Overview
Kieran McCarthy Fell, Wednesdays, 7pm—8pm
8 weekly sessions beginning Wednesday, September 25, 2019
This class is for those who have taken the Introduction to Tin Whistle class, but have never studied another instrument or need more time to master the basics. This class will continue to focus on basic whistle techniques: breathing, tonguing, and playing in both octaves. Additionally, students will work on strengthening skills of listening and picking up tunes by ear as we learn a number of traditional jigs, polkas, songs, and marches.
This class requires an instrument. For information about instrument rentals and purchases, click here.
