Irish Fiddle & Master Musician Gerry O'Connor is once again visiting Winnipeg and will be giving a Lecture/Concert at the Irish Club on March 14, Thursday evening followed by a Session (which in Irish music terms is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_traditional_music_session)
Cover charge is $10 for IAM & Comhaltas members & $15 for non-members.
This is a WONDERFUL & RARE opportunity for us in Winnipeg, to listen to and learn from one of Ireland's greatest living Irish Musicians....and to play along with him in an Irish Session!!! He is only in town and available for Thursday night and Friday before 3pm – so, we have to make the most of his short time here. Please mark the date on your calendars!!!!
Gerry will be available Friday between 11am and 3pm at the Irish Club to give private lessons $75/hour and group lessons $20/hour per person with minimum of 5 students per group. Non-fiddlers are encouraged to sign up for a mixed instruments group lesson on Irish style and interpretation.
If you are interested in taking a private or group fiddle lesson or mixed-instruments group lesson, please contact ASAP by replying to Susan Hammer at HammersMusic@gmail.com
He is currently touring and has recorded 5 albums with the much celebrated Irish-Canadian-based group The Irish Rovers.
