Dance Tunes, Birdsong, and a Krummhorn with Charles Coldwell

Joining Shula this month is Charles Coldwell, who has been in demand as a dance accompanist in many genres for many years on many instruments! He brings his recorders large and small, flutes, pipe and tabor, crumhorn and bagpipe. We'll play duos of the medieval, renaissance, and baroque eras, our own sparkly arrangements of English country dances, and tunes from the 1717 Bird Fancyer's Delight -- meant to be taught to birds!

Shulamit Kleinerman first added family house concerts to her offerings for children in 2007, and the audience quickly outgrew her teaching studio. The new space at Empty Sea is still welcoming, relaxed, and intimate enough for kids to scootch right upto the musiciansâ feetâ but now thereâs also room to dance! Shula is passionate about bringing the arts of earlier ages alive for kids. From Mozart operas to baroque minuets to Shakespeare skits to medieval songs, her historical arts workshops connect kids with the sparkle of the past. More information about her performances and classes for kids and adults can be found at shulamitk.net.
