        Introduction to the Ukulele – Michael VeSeart, Instructor. If you were stranded on a desert island and had only one instrument, make sure it's a ukulele! Michael VeSeart will teach you some simple techniques to get you started playing this fun and portable instrument. Bring your own ukulele if you have one. If not, use one of ours (advance registration required to reserve). Hawaiian shirts are optional!

Saturday, July 12, 2008 10am to Noon Fee: $10
 

        Introduction to Blues Harmonica – Alex Hastings, Instructor. Learn the basics of holding the harmonica, hand vibrato, chord and single note playing, rhythmic melodies (the backbone of a song), and other techniques by request. You will learn several good exercises to practice at home and ultimately walk away with a better understanding and knowledge of playing “blues” on the harmonica. A harmonica will be provided for this workshop and is included in the fee.
