Here are a couple pics from the first of the
Mandolin Workshop series. Fred Redekop led these folks in basic techniques of achieving good tone. The workshop focused on string and pick selection as well as how to hold the pick to get the best tone possible as consistently as possible. It was a real cool experience learning from Fred as he shared his wealth of knowledge regarding the mandolin, including many tricks he learned from David Grissman and Chris Thile at the Mandolin Syposium.
The 2nd workshop (Chords & Rhythm) will take place on Wednesday Feb 22nd and will focus on choosing chords to accompany a soloist or singer. Fred will be bringing his friend Alan Popowitch with him to provide the soloist and guitar duties. If you haven't registered yet you can do so by calling 783-2542 and giving us your name and number. The workshop is at 7pm and cost is $10.00.
Here is a Quicktime clip of the participants playing "Old Joe Clark" to finish out the night. The clip is 4.52MB. Enjoy!
