*In Person Class*

Adjacent to the ensemble program, and extra special for fiddlers only, this group is a class designed to equip CIM students with skills and techniques to advance in our ensemble program. This class will work on five basics of building your ‘Irish’ style: posture, intonation, tone, musicality, and new tunes. We’ll primarily focus on tone as it relates to intonation and posture through easy exercises, ‘tone vitamins’, and exploration of our instruments! This is a non-performing group.

*In-Person Class*

Directed by Hannah Flowers with support from Carmen Pasquerella, the Swallowtail Ensemble class is a unique opportunity for you to learn new tunes, practice old ones, learn how to lead a full set of tunes, and to experience arranging Irish music in a group of intermediate-level musicians (mixed instruments). New members are welcome, but should contact us at admin@centerforirishmusic.org to be sure the ensemble is a good fit. Also, consider joining Redwing Ensemble with Brian Miller.

Save the date for the Center for Irish Music Ensemble Holiday Concert at the Celtic Junction Arts Center on Saturday, November 18th, 2023 at 4:00pm.
