ADULT FOLKESTRA
Grab your instrument and come on out to join, "FOLKESTRA"! This lively ensemble is led by Victoria's own eclectic folky chameleon, Daniel Lapp. All instruments and all levels will be accommodated and no audition is required. Sight-reading is an asset but learning by ear is also a part of the game! Expect to learn some Texas Swing, Cajun Waltzes, Alberta Two Steps, Romanian Czardas and more. It's quite likely that we'll go public once or twice at some of Daniel's annual concerts and we'll also learn some of the 'Dance Tunes' that you'll be welcome to come and play at Daniel's monthly Old-Time Fiddle Dances!
