5th Annual Colorado Dulcimer Festival
JAMMING! (under construction)
From Jam-Maestra Bonnie Carol:
"We have lots of opportunities for you to play music with each other and with the staff: jams with a designated leader, song circle for a singing jam, a strictly mountain dulcimer jam, and jams of all levels for any instruments. And in addition, we hope you'll grab a friend and an empty room or hallway and play away between events, after concerts in the evening, and whenever else strikes your fancy."
For those participants who are not "jamming" but still want to play, we'll have a Performance Workshop available during one of the jam times.
FRIDAY AFTERNOON : (Workshop 2)
