Greetings Santa Cruz Celtic Musicians!<br><div>Can anyone recommend a bodhran teacher in Santa Cruz? I currently play frame drums (bendir & regular frame), doumbek and riq. That's me and one of my frame drums in the picture :). I love the bodhran and would like to take lessons.</div><div>I hope to come join you once I get going.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Victoria</div><div><br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div>> Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2012 22:10:01 -0700<br>> From: tachyon@tachyonlabs.com<br>> To: santa_cruz_celtic_slow_sessions@lists.sonic.net<br>> Subject: [Santa Cruz Celtic Slow Sessions] 3rd Sunday Session Invitation -Slow - August 19 - at The Buttery<br>> <br>> Fáilte (welcome) to this month's 3rd Sunday Session. 3rd Sunday of the<br>> month, 2 - 4 p.m., August 19, at The Buttery bakery and cafe, at 702<br>> Soquel Avenue close to downtown Santa Cruz. This is a slow session.<br>> Bain sult as! (enjoy)<br>> <br>> Etiquette guidelines:<br>> 1) Going around in a circle, everyone has a turn to choose a tune and<br>> the tempo.<br>> 2) Try to maintain the tempo set by the person who chose the tune.<br>> Conversely, if you choose a tune and tempo and find that the tempo<br>> gets sped up too much while playing, don't be shy about asking that<br>> it be immediately played again sticking to the slower tempo -- it's<br>> good practice for everyone.<br>> 3) A single tune is played 3 times. In a set, each tune is played<br>> twice.<br>> 4) If needed, bring your music stand and tuneset book. Here's a<br>> website with tips on playing by ear:<br>> http://www.slowplayers.org/SCTLS/learn.html<br>> 5) Copies of the tuneset books generally used at slow session are<br>> sold for $15, and you can now download and print the 1006-tune<br>> "King Street Sessions Tunebook" for free at<br>> http://www.pacholo.com/mike/<br>> -- many thanks to Michael Long for putting the book together and<br>> now putting it online as well!<br>> 6) All types of instruments are welcome and appreciated, but<br>> acoustic only, please!<br>> <br>> Some months we've played out on The Buttery's patio -- you can see<br>> two photos of this in Nick's blog entry<br>> http://quantumtantra.blogspot.com/2008/07/santa-cruz-session-relocates.html<br>> -- and other months we've been playing upstairs in an office, which<br>> you can see in these two photos<br>> http://flickr.com/photos/tachyon/2956709828/<br>> http://flickr.com/photos/tachyon/2955870083/<br>> Basically, if you don't see anyone on the patio, go up the stairs on<br>> the left outside wall of the Buttery, and you'll find us in a room<br>> down the hall on the left.<br>> -- <br>> Tané Tachyon = tachyon@tachyonlabs.com = http://tachyonlabs.com/<br>> <br>> _______________________________________________<br>> Santa_Cruz_Celtic_Slow_Sessions mailing list<br>> http://lists.sonic.net/mailman/listinfo/santa_cruz_celtic_slow_sessions<br></div></div> </div></body>
