Damien says...."Get up off your lazy duff and come
out to the session!!!
Yes, it's on (last wed of the month) at
Jack Bradley's House, 3815 Park Ave, Fairfield, 06825 at 7:30pm. Exit 47 off the Merritt Parkway, South to 3815 Park Ave, immediate right, park on Brion Dr.,
enter through side door.
Description of the Intermediate Session:
At the session, we play through our list of tunes
in some random order. Sometimes, we'll have sessioners pick the tunes. Tunes that are not on the list, but that are common
enough get played too. At half time, we take a break for snacks and a chat. After break, I introduce the new tune. People
bring recorders. Then we play till about 9:30.
Tunes are played at *what we consider to be a moderate
pace.* Not snail but not road runner either. The session is intended for those musicians who get frustrated with really
fast paced sessions that are impossible to keep up with. If you find the I-Session too fast, we invite you to use the session
as an opportunity to develop the virtue of patience!!!
I email the tune of the month to all
who are on my email list using Finale NotePad software. If you don't have it, download Finale Note Pad for free (Google it).
When I send out tunes to you via email, this will help you to read and print what I write.
As always:
Major thanks to Jack Bradley for the use of his home
And major thanks to my mother in law, who is babysitting!!!
