New Round of online Classes on Banjo, Fiddle, Guitar , and Mandolin - Carl Jones & Erynn Marshall

Wednesday, March 3, 2021

Posted by Carl Jones on Wednesday, March 3, 2021

A hearty howdy to everyone enamored of all things banjo. I hope you are finding a bit of music time every day to explore the ever amazing sound and possibilities of your instrument. It is always the tip of the iceberg and I do love that there is always more to discover. It's amazing when you focus on one small part of anything, Being able to vary the dynamics of the "note", "brush" or "thumb" collectively or individually gives you more control of your sound.

I'm writing this to announce that our online classes (Erynn Marshall & I ) are rolling around for our spring set of group classes. Details follow:

Erynn & I have our next online (zoom) fiddle, guitar, banjo, mandolin classes (almost-spring session) starting in a week & there’s still time to sign up. Hope you will consider joining in for informative yet fun classes starting in March:

Each group class meets online for an hour a week for 6 weeks on Zoom. Videos will be made of all classes so you can miss a class and watch later if you'd like to. Some people in far-flung time zones like to take the class entirely by video. Fiddle Tab (fingerings) & other helpful print materials will be provided.

Participants are given access to a class folder of all the music/tab/videos we provide on Dropbox. You can download all teh class videos/music/tab onto your own computer for review. Cost per 6 session class is $75-100 (sliding scale: pay what you can). Canadian's can pay the same prices in CAD. We’ll learn good technique, old-time style, great tunes and some interesting background on some of our favorite, traditional players! We'll also strive to have fun and have a sense of community in these group classes because everyone needs that right now and we enjoy it too. To register just tell us what class you'd like to join by emailing info@dittyville.com and make your payment via paypal, venmo or check.
