Hello Everyone,
I'm looking forward to a new 10
week term of great songs, ukulele moves and guitar action starting this
Monday 13th April. And..........a midyear gig in June!
Term 2 Dates: 13th April to 26 June (10 week term)
Contact helenbegley2@yahoo.com.au for more
information or to book a class.
TERM 2 CLASSES
Monday 8pm Ukulele Group in West
Brunswick
There are a couple of spots
available in the Monday night Ukulele Group. It's always good fun learning an
instrument and having a bit of a sing and a strum with other friendly players.
You just need to be able to play a few basic chords. Each week we learn a new
song of the group members choice to add to the repertoire. By the end of term
you will have learnt 10 new songs! Come and join us in the West Brunswick
backyard bungalow for a sing and a strum.
Wednesday Songwriting Group 7pm
West Brunswick- Write a 3 to 5 Song EP of your very own songs.
Every fortnight in term 2,
songwriting students will work towards writing their very own EP of songs by
the end of term. Each session will include songwriting exercises to get the
creative juices flowing, and song sharing and feedback to help with editing
their work into finely wrought, bloody good songs! There is one spot left in
this creative group. Let me know if you are the one!
Wednesday Guitar Group 7pm West
Brunswick - Learn the songs from the musical, ONCE.
Every fortnight in West
Brunswick, guitar students will meet to learn a song from the brilliant musical,
ONCE. If you didn't get a chance to see the stage play, get the film out and
enjoy one of the best contemporary musicals I reckon I've seen. There are 3
spots available in this group. If you're up for a bit of a sing, possibly a
couple of duets, as well as learning some simple but interesting guitar parts,
come and join this group.
Chicks with Picks Sweet Strumming
and Singing Song Group - 7.30pm Armadale
This might be one of the most
delightful musical group's south of the river. Every Tuesday evening, a group
of women brandishing ukuleles, guitars and gorgeous voices meet in Marilla's
back room to learn two songs chosen from suggestions from the group and have a
fine time singing and strumming their way through them. New members to the
group are always welcome. You just have to be able to play a few basic chords
on your guitar or ukulele and come prepared to have a good sing. Hope you can
join us.
Chickettes with Pickettes write
their own EP's - West Brunswick
This term the West Brunswick
Chickettes with Pickettes, girls aged between 10 and 14 years old, are writing
their own 3 to 5 song EP's. They produced some terrifically fresh and
intelligent songs last term and I can't wait to hear the results of their
creative endeavours this term. There are two spots available in the Monday
group at 5pm. If you know of any young women that would like to write some
songs and play some guitar with a couple of lovely Chickettes, let me
know.
Drive by Lessons - Inner Northern
Suburbs
I shall be continuing home visits
on Thursday evenings. It's been a dream of mine to encourage music making in
people's homes. The dream is now a reality and I love popping into student's
lounge rooms each Thursday with new music and my trusty guitar and ukulele at
the ready. If you'd like me to come to your house, I still have a 5pm- 5.45pm
timeslot available each Thursday in the Inner Northern suburbs.
Private Tuition - West Brunswick
and Armadale
I have lots of half hour spots
available for private tuition in West Brunswick on Monday and Wednesday
evenings and one spot available at 6.30pm in Armadale on Tuesday. If you'd like
that little bit of extra attention or you'd like to book a double lesson with a
friend and learn together, let me know and let's start playing music. Times
below:
Monday (West Brunswick): 6pm,
7pm, 7.30pm
Wednesday (West Brunswick): 5pm,
5.30pm, 6.30pm. 8.30pm
I look forward to hearing from
you and spending Term 2 making music with you in the lounge rooms and bungalows
of Melbourne,
Yours in plucking and strumming,
Helen
