Concert/Workshop Schedule:
2:00-3:00pm Beverly Hoback presents a free concert of humorous parodies, originals, folk songs, and funny stories to uplift you and put a smile on your face. Playing mountain dulcimer and guitar in both standard and DADGAD tunings, Beverly embraces her senior citizen status as she celebrates nature, friendship, and everyday joy. Doors open at 1:30pm
3:15-4:00pm - Immediately following her concert, Beverly will present a 1-hour intermediate-level workshop on using a noter to play melodies and do ornamentation such as hammering on and pulling off. Students will learn the song "One I Love," which has been recorded by both Jean Ritchie and Sally Jacobsen, using an arrangement with both Beverly's harmony and one she learned from Aubrey Attwater. Bring your dulcimer with the melody string tuned to C, middle string A, bass string D. Beverly has many noters to loan out to those who don't own one, as well as two extra dulcimers if someone would like to play but can't bring their instrument.
