Hi everybody, my name is Matthew Jampol and i'm going to be leading the new community
guitar ensemble at the grateful guitar. our rehearsals are every saturday morning
from 10am to 1130 it's ten dollars per person and it's a lot
of fun. If you have a guitar just grab it and bring
it down. The orchestra is set up in two sections for
cord players, and for fingerpicking, and then I'll be playing
solos with the ensemble.
I'll be also giving instruction on left hand technique and helping you to relax,
and play a little bit better. I'll give you an example of what it's going
to sound like. For example, the song Greensleeve sounds like this.
So that's what I'll be playing. And then the cords will be playing.
And then the finger pickers will play. So it will be really a three part ensemble.
And if you have the ability to read music as well,
please join and you could be part of the third part section as well.
So that's what it will sound like. Let me play you a little bit of my own works.
I'm a composer and and I'll play a piece called Overture for you,
a little excerpt for you. So that gives you a little taste of who I
am, and what we're going to be doing with you
on the stroke. So every saturday morning it's a lot of fun,
just grab your guitar come on down. And the acoustics will be great.
Fifteen, twenty, thirty people together playing music,
it's really a wonderful experience. No stress, just lots of fun meeting new people.
Playing the music you love. We'll choose the pieces you want to play,
and also we'll be able to able to play some fundraisers
within the community. Some cheery fundraisers. So if it sounds like something you want to
do, a lot of fun,
come on down to the Grateful Guitar on Duval Street..Duval Square. It's the center
of guitar in Key West. And join in.
My phone number is (305) 304 1437, or call the Grateful Guitar they'll be able
to set you up to be part of the community guitar orchestra.
Thank you very much and hope to see you at the rehearsals, bye!
