Every March, Allen Hopkins says if you have a green sweater, a guitar and an Irish song, you’ll find a St. Patrick’s Day gig. But, by that time, it’s almost too late to learn one! In this workshop, Allen and co-hosts Pat Carey and Cathy McGrath will talk a bit about Irish music, sing and teach some songs, and suggest sources and techniques to develop repertoire. Bring an instrument and get in the St. Pat’s spirit a month early. (We can’t promise Guinness, though…)
Come and enjoy songs and tunes from the long tradition of Irish and Irish-American music, and perhaps add them to your own singing repertoire –– before you “ramble, and must go” to that night’s sing-around. St. Patrick’s Day is coming! After the workshop, attend the second half of the singaround and bring a new Irish tune to share.
Seating is limited, so don't miss out - register early! Be sure to register (online only) by Sunday, February 9th. For questions, contact our Education Coordinator.
