Description: There are certain pieces that have become standards, known by any experienced harpist who plays traditional Celtic music. They have remained popular simply because they're great tunes! Kim will share some of the timeless melodies she considers an essential part of the Celtic repertoire, including slow airs, some O'Carolan tunes and jigs & reels taken at harp-friendly tempos. The tunes will be on lead sheets and ideas will be given for simple but effective left hand patterns as well as some 2-hand accompaniment patterns useful for playing along at sessions or with other melody instruments. The class is geared for harpists new to Celtic music and veterans who'd like to collect new arranging ideas or revisit some old favorites. Come play some great tunes together and share some of your own favorites! [Hands-on, all levels welcome, ability to read a lead sheet helpful but not necessary. Bring music stand, audio tape recorders welcome).
