November is for Practice

October 31, 2016 by Arlyn

Dear Ones,
Happy Halloween and Día de Muertos.
The Embodying Rhythm practice challenge begins tomorrow. Just add 15 minutes a day of musical practice/musical inquiry to your life to participate. More info here: https://ladyarlyn.wordpress.com

We wanted to make sure you had November 12th and 13th on your calendar – FEAST Plays Chamber Music with Marcin Arendt, violin, Kathryn Mientka, piano, David Alderdice, percussion, Kimberly Patterson, cello, and Benjamin DeKock, bass. In Grand Junction and Montrose. tickets

Also we just added a 12/8 marimba workshop to the schedule on December 4th in Hotchkiss. Deepen your relationship to this fun and elusive time-feel and the inherent polyrhythms that are fundamental to the Zimbabwean marimba player while playing in ensemble. This workshop is open to participants who have marimba experience or are an intermediate player of another instrument. more information

David has been deeply immersed in arranging music for the January 21, 2017 Musical Caravan performance on the Blue Sage World Music Concert Series. The musicians got together this past weekend for the first rehearsal and it is a great crew and a super fun and broad repertoire. more info and tickets

We hope to see you soon.

blessings,
Arlyn and David
