Are you a musician who would like to know more about how to play for social dance? Join TADAMS for a workshop taught by Janet Muse (Piano) and Mike Dunn (fiddle) of Charlottesville.

What you Need to Know

Moderate comfort level with your instrument, i.e. can play a melody line or chords. Ability to read music is helpful but not necessary.

No experience playing for dance necessary.

No age requirements.

Bring your instrument(s); we welcome a broad variety, not just the “contra dance usuals.”

Janet & Mike will play the contra dance at West End Ballroom that evening, 7:30-10:30 p.m.

What to Expect

Discussion of specific music needs to support a lively dance. Examples will be played for each concept. Notes will be distributed.

Play some tunes and medleys toegether.
