Hi Ray,

Yes, got that bit, so I know roughly which category I fall into.

What I was missing was what level each individual workshop will be pitched at, i.e. is your "Take a simple tune and dress it up" Beginner/Intermediate, or Intermediate/Higher?

Cheers,

Rob

I am booked in - will travel on the day as I am only 1.5 hours away as the car travels.

Anyone else from the North West interested in sharing travelling?

I seem to have made things more complicated than I thought!
Each artist page will have more information about content and levels of their sessions, however I am still waiting for some of that info from the tutors-mine is there and so is Brian's at the moment. However if the workshop has a 1 after on the programme (e.g. A1) then that is a beginner/intermediate if it has a 2 it is intermediate/higher. I will add that piece of information to the workshop information page.

Hope that helps if not get in touch and I will try to make things clearer-the site is changing almost on a daily basis as I update and hopefully improve how information is laid out-work in progress!   :||:

Great response form melnetters for the workshops already-to date there has been no other form of publicity so it is pretty much exclusive to melnetters to get first choices-publicity to the wider audience is due out towards the end of February

The first one was last year. I thought it worked really well - intimate workshops, great tutors, good concert in the evening, and overall well worth the trip. And great value too I thought.

The venue was also great - good sized workshop rooms, plenty of room to meet & mingle, and a theatre / hall well equiped to make the concert a success.

If you're minded to go ... I would!

Hope that helps.  :|glug :||:

Tickets for the workshops on Juky 2nd going well, but still spaces left for people who prefer to book late in the process. Workshop price of £28.00 includes entry to the evening concert a good deal in the current lcimate we believe! Check it out on www.raylangton.com

More notation being added almost daily-Katie's and mine on the site at present. To obtain your own copy navigate through Squeezing Shropshire tab to the artists music pages. Right click on the notation and then copy and paste it into word. Print out is a little fuzzy-but at least you have got a copy in advance! Sound files also being added so you can listen to the music as well.
