November 2013 Meeting Report



It was an interesting meeting to say the least. First,  it happened that there was a meditation session at the same time so we moved to a classroom in back which turned out to be a good space for us , smaller and acoustically better. Secondly we had a laugh about the time change, a week late! The six of us, plus a couple from B.C. just sitting in to listen, continued to practice "Spanish Fandango" , A Soalin, River, Acres of Clams" etc.. The new song was "Crooked Ridge " and everyone seemed to like and picked up rather quickly. 

We encourage all dulcimer players to come by and join us for the month whether you are experienced or just beginning. Also, if you would like to try the instrument let us know so we can bring extra instruments for you.

Let me know if you are interested in presenting a new song for December, otherwise just bring some Holiday tunes you would like to play and we will forgo the usual practice and celebrate the winter solstice.
