The idea
Get together with music learners once a month to play together in a non-threatening, light-hearted environment.
The plan
Provide an environment where people who are learning to play musical instruments can get together and play music together. This will further learning by keeping things interesting and enjoyable. It will also give a purpose to practicing.
The details
When
Meet once a month on the second Thursday from 3:00 to 4:00.
Where
Davis Senior Center Lounge?
Instruments
All instruments are welcome from ukulele, mandolin, guitar, violin, drums , keyboard to tuba, sax, clarinet, flute, voice, kazoo, harmonica, nearly anything.
Skill level
There are no skill level requirements just a desire to learn and improve.
Songs & genres
Pretty much all. American Songbook, jazz, folk, rock, Irish, classical, etc.
How
We will select 10 or 12 songs to learn and play two, three or maybe four of them each meeting. The idea is to get good at playing the songs so that making music is easy and playing together is easy. Eventually will each have a repertoire that we can play anytime with little effort.
