2nd Wednesday of the Month
Play and sing the popular music of the early 20th century from Ragtime to Dixieland to Blues to Swing. Share your your favorites and learn something new from original hotel orchestra sheet music. Improve your improvisation skills when it’s your turn to riff! Slow and sultry or fast and loose, there’ll be something for everyone.

3rd Wednesday of the Month
This is a friendly, repertoire-building opportunity to play your new tunes slowly and work on your old tunes at a reasonable tempo. We will focus specifically on traditional Irish music, and all Irish-appropriate instruments are welcome (i.e. wooden flute, tin whistle, concertina, button or piano accordion, guitar, bouzouki, mandolin, fiddle, harp). We encourage tape recorders, and focus on learning tunes by ear. Music stands and continuous use of sheet music discouraged. Bring snacks to share. Small donation requested to cover building expenses. Questions? Contact Hilary Schrauf at 518-424-8701.
