*In-Person Class*

The Redwing Ensemble class is an intermediate level mixed-instrument ensemble.

Directed by Norah Rendell, students will learn tunes and arrange them in sets to perform together as a group. This class has a strong focus on building ensemble skills including playing fluently, adding variations, listening to each other, maintaining excellent rhythm, using simple harmonies, preparing for performances, increasing knowledge of traditional Irish music, and having fun with each other and the music!

New members are welcome, but should contact us at admin@centerforirishmusic.org to be sure the ensemble is a good fit.

In addition to CIM holidays, this class will not meet on October 18, December 19.

Reminder: Ensemble students are required to take regular private lessons from a CIM instructor. CIM instructors support learning the ensemble repertoire and reinforce technical & stylistic aspects of each student's instrument. Financial aid is available.

Irish music is most fun when it is played with friends! Join Hannah Flowers for a new Beginning Ensemble this 2024-25 school year. This mixed-instrument ensemble is open to young musicians who know about 10-15 full-length Irish tunes (jigs, reels, or polkas). This class is a great opportunity to meet new Irish music friends who play different instruments, and to improve your Irish music skills which include learning music by ear, rhythm, pitch and repertoire!
