Slow session

I plan to host a slow Irish session at my house during the last weekend of September, to offer less advanced players a chance to play tunes with others at their level. Often, at the Charlottesville or Richmond sessions, tunes are played faster than I can manage and I can only listen. I'm sure that's the case with others as well.

I have invited a fair number of people, but I don't know how many might attend. If it succeeds, I might do this once a quarter or so.

As Confucius said, "It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop."

Good luck with your slow session. I've been leading them for 15 or so years in the Midwest and Southwest. I have an essay on ways to make them work well at http://coyotebanjo.com/music-44.html

Have fun!
