Sorry I didn't get around to organizing a Pennsic hg event before the scheduling deadline this year. If someone suggests a time and place for a gathering, my hg and I will probably attend. Also, I plan to busk as usual, so say hi. If you want to contact me at Pennsic and don't have my cell phone number already, email me for it.
I'll have my brand new CD of completely non-period music (sorry) for sale there. It's not hg-specific, but a friend of mine is organizing an instrument petting zoo this Saturday. I'm pasting the info she gave me at the end of this email. I don't know what the link is supposed to be, but it doesn't work for me. Lady Melissa the Loud (Melissa the Loud Lady?) www.melissatheloud.com Hi guys, So earlier we had a thread about different melody instruments, how one could find a zurna, whats out there to be played etc. So I have it on the agenda, the middle Saturday at 4pm. "Instrument Petting Zoo". I'm hoping we will have people there with a wide variety of instruments, so we can all learn more about them, where to get them, how they sound etc. I'm cc'ing this to other likely parties who may want to help stir up musical mischief and who may not be lurking on the list. . I'll be bringing my own neys of course, the been/punji, and various little recorder things and reeded things I have. If you've been trying to find me with some ney questions this might be a good time to meet up. If you know people that would be interested or that play some cool weird instrument they'd be willing to bring please forward this and SPREAD THE WORD http://f1.grp.yahoofs.com/v1/sDphSioGe0PHTkpOeM6zDjTWkppA8fx-9ysjPgRfzH0IfJb1WmGD769nrLfbREa8z0mHQ0DB0V0S9qHA6sgPAA/Haberci2009.pdf The description (which I whipped off basically the last minute, and this is the shorter version lol) is below. --------- Have an interest in playing a musical instrument in the SCA but aren't sure what's available, or an odd (or not so odd) instrument you'd like to share with the class? This class is an informal "show and tell" session of Middle Eastern, European and other instruments that hopes to inspire would-be players and spread enthusiasm for the less commonly played instruments. Period and or "closer to period" instruments particularly welcome. If you have something cool to share with the class (whether you play it yet or not) PLEASE bring it. Participants will share what they know about their instrument, and possibly do a demo if comfortable. (“Petting” optional). "The Caravanserai" is located in Ostgardr, located on Chandlers Road at the corner of Brewers and Chandlers --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "hurdygurdy" group.
