Both banjo / mandolin beginner and intermediate classes are to meet at the Courtyard Theatre between 7pm-7.15pm for a quick practice together before the concert. We expect to play our performance at approx 8.15pm and will probably be only playing one set of tunes. I have selected 3 polka’s namely…
The Seige of Ennis, The Ballydesmond No.2, The Munster Bank
If we get time to play another set we will play the 2 slip jigs…
Dusty Millar, The Snowy Path, and each tune will be played first part twice and second part twice. It will be great to see as many from the classes as possible, remember it’s all just a bit of fun and great support for showing of our school. Whether you know 1,2 3 or 4 tunes please come along and play what you know. See you all there
