Mark Alan Wade teaches Arranging in January Live Workshop

Concert-Ready O’Carolan

We learn by doing, so rather than talking about arranging, let’s do some arranging! I have prepared for you a great arrangement of a tune by O’Carolan that used all of the tactics I teach in arranging. We will learn how to put it all together, and more importantly, discuss why the arrangement elements are there and what they do for the listener. I’ll keep the playing level needed on the easier side, so we can focus on understanding how to manipulate the arrangement to achieve desired outcomes. By the end of the hour, you will not only be able to play this arrangement, but be able to apply these techniques to your own pieces.

This is a Hammered Dulcimer-Focused Workshop.  (Steve & Erin Mae will provide Mountain Dulcimer translation.)
