- Bluegrass Music Education and Sharing SIG In Person
-
Maximum Enrollment: 15
Participants will learn about bluegrass music in an open-circle jam environment. A bluegrass open circle jam is an informal and communal musical gathering where musicians sit or stand in a circle to play and sing traditional acoustic bluegrass tunes. It is not a performance, but a collaborative event for sharing music and improvising together. The jam consists of (1) A song leader: One person in the circle chooses a song, calls out its name and key, and then starts it off with a "kickoff" lick to set the tempo and rhythm, and (2) The "round robin": The turn to choose a song is passed sequentially around the circle, usually to the left. Participants can pass their turn if they don't have a song to lead.
