SCHEDULE:

(5 minute break)
2:20-2:40 pm Band Rehearsal with All Students
2:40-3:25 pm New Student Class
This gives both groups a 45-minute class with a 20-minute band rehearsal sandwiched in between making it easier on our younger students and allows everyone who wishes to go to the Penny Whistle Session afterwards the chance to do that without a long wait.
Latest Tune: Merry Blacksmith. There are 2 versions of the sheet music, one plain and one with bowing marks for fiddles.
