Intro To Old Time Sessions

Introduction to Old Time Sessions is a family friendly instrumental workshop for string band musicians of all ages and skill levels held in charming Trentham.

Bring along your violin/fiddle, viola, banjo, guitar, mandolin, ukulele, double bass or cello and learn how to join in with a traditional Old Time music session. Learn how to ‘shuffle along’, develop deeper listening skills and build confidence learning new tunes by ear.

This 2 hour workshop will be led by local Cat Moser who is a singer and multi-instrumentalist in many bands and ensembles touring nationally and overseas. She is a community arts worker, music teacher and has recently completed her Masters of Therapeutic Arts Practice at MIECAT Institute.

While beginner players are very welcome to join in, this is not a ‘how to play your instrument’ workshop. Players who already have the basics mastered will get the most out of the session.

All players under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian. Non-playing accompanying adults are free.

Trentham Neighbourhood Centre is fully wheelchair accessible and has accessible bathrooms.
