 Judy Schmidt will present the daylong workshop, which will be broken
into two sessions. The first session, for novices, will be from 10
a.m. to noon. The intermediate workshop, a continuation of the first
session, is scheduled from 1 to 3:30 p.m. Schmidt is a teacher,
performer and composer for the hammered dulcimer. Students will
learn chords and songs in the morning session. In the afternoon
session, the focus will be on improving playing techniques of the
songs taught in the morning session. Songs will include jigs and
carols.
There is a $30 registration fee for the entire workshop. This is
the last day to register. For a registration form and further
information or to reserve a dulcimer, call Steven Endsley at
309-668-2362.
