If you have any sad, lonely fiddles hanging out in a dark closet, some child would love to be playing it! She will take any size and will pay up to $50 for them depending on the condition. This is about what you'll get if you sold a used student grade fiddle on ebay. Buying them from you saves her shipping. Extra bows are also needed.

COLLEGE OF THE REDWOODS: (Arcata, CA area) - College of the Redwoods Music Department announced that beginning AUG 26 2013, community members can learn to play guitar or beginning band instruments (brass, percussion, or woodwinds), by enrolling in new CR Community Education classes.

In order to simultaneously meet CR students' needs for transfer credit and to serve the North Coast community's desire for personal enrichment opportunities in music, CR's music faculty and administration developed an innovative new two-tier enrollment system that involves offering enrollments through both its Community Education Department and as regular college credit classes. "The instructors are hoping to see a blend of new and familiar faces," said CR Music Professor Ed Macan. CR Associate Faculty Ruben Diaz will teach beginning and intermediate guitar students in a group setting. Class includes familiarization with fretboard, fundamental music notation, common chord progressions, and develop­ment of finger independence. Intermediate students will also continue their development of guitar skills in both group and individual formats. Students continue to develop finger independence and chord construction abilities, and are introduced to reading notes from treble clef, improvising over common chord changes, and performance practices appropriate to specific musical styles. Beginning band instruments classes give students an opportunity to bring their own or rented instruments and learn how to play brass, percussion or woodwind instruments. New and returning adult students of all ages are welcome through the CE. class. More info on CE or for schedules or registration or call 707-269-4000.
