Anyone going to Celtic Week at Swannanoa next month?
My first time to attend, and I've signed up for whistle and trad repertoire classes. I've read previous threads, and it sounds like it'll be a great/fun experience. Anyone going? From California?
Re: Anyone going to Celtic Week at Swannanoa next month?
I'll be there from SW Virginia. I'm a guitar player, but those classes filled up fast, so I'll be doing beginning bodhran and Grainne's "whistle for the complete eejit" class.
This is my third year going; it's a friendly camp w/o a lot of attitude.
Re: Anyone going to Celtic Week at Swannanoa next month?
I signed up in early April and the guitar class I wanted was already filled, so I'll be in the beginning as well as the intermediate/advanced whistle classes. I'm not sure which one of those I should be in, but both might be OK, and I expect to learn a lot in any event. I'll do my best to stay on Pacific time so I can jam into the wee EDT hours.

Me also...from Western NY. I went in 2002 and had a great time. I'm a fiddler/whistler so will be taking advanced Scottish Fiddle and int/adv. whistle. I'm bringing 2 young teenagers..one fiddler and one harper who both received full scholarships. They also will be taking the whistle course with J. Skelton. See you there!

I am, but from North Carolina. I'll be in the intermediate flute and whistle classes.
The description of the repertoire class made it seem like it was mostly for singers.
