MARK CURRIE
BODHRÁN
Level: Beginner
Saturday, Oct. 25 | 9 AM | Room 1 Christ Church Hall Main Floor
Join seasoned session musician Mark Currie for an engaging introduction to the bodhrán, rooted in the traditional Kerry style. Since picking up the instrument in 1988, Mark has developed a distinctive rhythmic voice shaped by his background as a highland piper and lifelong love of traditional music. In this beginner-friendly workshop, Mark will guide you through the basics of holding, tuning, and playing the bodhrán, with a focus on foundational rhythms and musicality. No experience needed — just bring your curiosity (and a bodhrán if you have one)!
