Bring along your chromatic harp (diatonics won’t work well here), or just come to enjoy singing these favorites from the treasure trove of old-time ragtime style.

MLAG 2023 Workshop Leader Concert - Thu 6/8, 1:45 PM

In addition to our featured performers, MLAG includes many workshops taught by other members of our community. This concert allows those workshop leaders to talk briefly about their workshops, and perform a tune; if there’s time, maybe even two tunes.  While the virtual track offers just 6 workshops from 6 instructors, this concert will give a taste of what’s available to those attending Mountain Laurel in person.

MLAG 2023 - Bryan Bowers "Have Fun with a Song" - Thu 6/8, 3:00PM

Instructor: Bryan Bowers
Level: All
Keys: G, D, F, C

Try a song in different keys; get the understanding that when you switch keys with the setup, the next keys will be the same patterns. Learn it once and play it in any key. Listen to how your voice sounds different in all the keys. Be observant about how your voice sounds and feels in different keys.

MLAG 2023 Virtual Workshop - "A Bit of Bluegrass" - George McCoy - Fri 6/9, 11:30 AM

Instructor: George McCoy
Level: Beginner & Up
Keys: TBA
In this workshop, I will teach you how to make your autoharp sound like a banjo or a mandolin. Learn these techniques and you can sit in with any bluegrass group or play foot-tapping bluegrass solos with the best of them. I will show you the picking style that helped me to win the MLAG championship last year. The picking style you'll be learning can be used with finger picks or bare nails. I will show you my top three brands of finger picks. We'll also learn ways to keep those fast-moving finger picks from flying off your fingers. Join us for a little pickin' and grinnin'. You'll need a chromatic or G diatonic autoharp for this workshop. The ability to play scales and simple melodies is very helpful as well.

MLAG 2023 Virtual Jam - Fri 6/9, 1:45PM

The Jam Band will be in the Shippensburg auditorium, along with In Person jammers… and you can listen in and play along from home!  We will mute your audio, but you will see the group playing in the hall as you join in the fun.” It’s a grand experiment in virtually playing together.
