Description: In Advanced Bodhrán, we’ll learn to further enhance our playing with tonal variation, alternate sticking patterns, syncopated rhythms, and ornamentation, and begin to craft fully-formed parts to accompany traditional melodies. We’ll deepen our understanding of jigs and reels, and develop approaches to other types of traditional tunes. And, we’ll learn how to break out of any rhythmical ruts we may be stuck in! Students who sign up for this class should already be comfortable accompanying both jigs and reels, and able to play at session speed with consistent timing. Feel free to bring questions, favorite recordings, and topics of discussion to class! We’ll use written notation in class but leave time every day for students wishing to make audio or video recordings for reference.
