The Grapes
Traditional Irish Music Session for Intermediate Players. Monthly
Second Wednesday of the Month. 7:30pm – 10pm. Beginning May 2023.
Are you interested in joining a Traditional Irish only Music Session for Intermediate Players in Sheffield once a month. The group aims to provide a space for players who are not absolute beginners but wish to play their instruments at a steady pace, not fast. A willingness to share and teach each other Trad. Irish tunes only, in sets, will be encouraged. Singers will be disappointed as this is mainly a music playing session only. Tunes will generally follow the repertoire of Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Eireann format as in their published tunes Book 1 to begin with: Foinn Seisiún Book - Volume 1 https://comhaltas.ie/shop/detail/foinn_seisiun_book_volume_1/

Tunes will be played at a steady speed through to give each player time to familiarise themselves with the tune set and then to up their pace to a reasonable speed and / or lead a set. The session will be conducted by an Intermediate Trad. Irish Player. If you are interested and can possibly attend you are very welcome. Please contact jcbhwe33@gmail.com with your availability and contact details. And you will be forwarded further details and the session etiquette.
