The of the old-time country singing tradition of Appalachia is loved for its close intimate harmony structures, interesting modal melodies, and the ‘high lonesome sound’ that has been a cornerstone of all of modern music. Come and join the Buffalo Gals for a group singing session, where we will share songs in an informal way designed to help you feel confident. Parts will be learned by the whole class, and then if you wish you can try working in smaller groups of four to six. We will learn some elements of old-time duet and trio harmonies through the medium of country ballads, blues, and gospel. The aim is to have fun singing, and make a wonderful sound together!
Where: Cornwall House, Room 2
