Tin Whistle Workshop with Mary Ann Samuels
(For the Burlington Irish Heritage Festival)
Location: Pickering Room, Fletcher Free Library, 235 College St., Burlington
Admission: Free! Donations welcome

The tin whistle, iconic instrument of Irish music, is a simple, yet amazing instrument. At this workshop students will use D whistles to learn the basics, plus a few tunes by ear. Attendees are encouraged to bring a recording device. Sheet music for the tunes will be provided at the end of the workshop. Mary Ann Samuels has played tin whistles since the late 1970's. She performs with Full Circle and Champlain Consort, playing hammered dulcimer and recorders as well as whistles. She has taught music in schools and now teaches private lessons at home.
