PLEASE NOTE:The Dustys session is now finished for the Christmas holidays. Thanks to everyone who took part, and we wish all of you a happy and peaceful Christmas.
The class and session return to the Western on Thursday 19th Jan 2012, hope to see you all there! As always new faces are very welcome – please contact us for more information.
Happy holidays!
The Session for Improvers! We have a good variety of tunes and sets, and many members of this group play regularly in open sessions around Galway. This is a stepping stone to playing out in other sessions. Moderate pace and steady playing is the emphasis.
Sheet music is available at all the sessions, though it's not necesssary to be able to read music. You can also record the tunes if you like. Generally a lot of the same tunes and sets are played each week, so after a short time you should be getting to know some of them.
We have also produced 3 learners' CDs and a book of tunes in several formats (including tablature). These resources are available at the sessions, or from the resources page.
Dusty Banjos takes place every Thursday, 7.45 - 9.30pm, upstairs in the Western Hotel, Galway. Cost: €8.
