Emmanuel & Christian are two of the best melodeon players in France & are experts in French regional dance music. They are brilliantly entertaining & very good teachers, being favourites at On Bouge in London. Emmanuel has taught at Concertinas at Witney and regularly leads melodeon-building weeks for EATMT in Suffolk.

The workshop will cover a nice choice of dance tunes from Brittany, central & south-west France, with Christian teaching melody style & Emmanuel chordal accompaniment. Some music will be sent in advance. The workshop is for any instrument but will be especially valuable for melodeon players.

Is there anything on in the evening? Would make it more worthwhile for those of us several 100 miles away.

Yes, that's right. The chaps are guests at Lewes Saturday Folk Club in the evening (entrance £8 tonight, tickets available in advance through the club website and also on the door). Floor singers are welcome and we always start off with a few English dance tunes for anyone with an instrument to join in. See http://www.lewessaturdayfolkclub.org/.

I'm looking forward to this a lot.

Emmanuel has very efficiently sent me the advance music for the workshop and it's ready to be sent out by email. We still have a few workshop places left, and plenty of tickets for Emmanuel and Christian's evening performance at Lewes Saturday Folk Club (floor spots welcome).

And the gallant Lester Bailey has produced abc versions of the tunes 'in case others want to hear their computers bleep the tune at them  :)'. What a fine helpful fellow he is.

 The workshop is now fully booked with a waiting list. If you're interested, email me on valmaigoodyear@aol.com. I will send advance music and the timetable in case there are any late cancellations. We still have plenty of tickets for Emmanuel & Christian's evening performance at Lewes Saturday Folk Club.
