A fun and friendly group for those wishing to learn the D/G melodeon. This once-a-month group (final Friday of each month) is led by Ed Rennie, to bring together those at the early stages of grappling with the instrument for group tuition and a bit of encouragement. The price includes lunch (1pm).
Who’s it For?
We’re now running two groups as follows:
11am-1pm: Beginner/Improvers
(1-2pm: Lunch)
2-4pm: Complete Beginners
Ed usually has boxes available to borrow by prior arrangement – contact him on 01363 774426 if you wish to borrow a box, or to discuss whether this group is for you.
The Tutor
A founder member of the Devon Squeezebox Foundation, Ed Rennie is passionate about helping people get started – and keep going! He recently published a book and CD ‘The Melodeon Tutor’, a step-by-step approach to unravel the mysteries of the D/G melodeon, and he runs beginners workshops at venues and festivals. For a long time best known as the melodeon player in The Bismarcks, Ed is also a fine singer, and plays bass for the Dartmoor Pixie Band.
