Folk Harp Workshop with Andy Rigby

Andy Rigby will lead participants through a selection of tunes from his wide repertoire of Celtic, Latin American, Balkan and original music. Melodies will all be playable on lever harp, and the workshop will include arrangement ideas for all sizes of harp and levels of proficiency. Full notation will be available, and at times teaching will be done aurally. At least one of the pieces will be prepared for the concert later that afternoon. A good time is guaranteed!
