Roger reminded us of the En Avant-quatre du Tregor, which Dave Shepherd taught last month and Quentin showed some basics for the Mazurka.
Wednesday 5th October 2016 - Dave Shepherd
Dave Shepherd is best known as the fiddler in Blowzabella and over the years has developed a distinctive style. Several of Dave’s compositions have become standards both here and in Europe. Dave is well known as a teacher of traditional dance and fiddle in the UK and abroad. As well as playing in Blowzabella he has played in a duo with Becky Price (Boldwood), currently plays with Belgian accordion player Simon Gielen, and more recently has begun researching the English dance tradition and formed a duo with diatonic accordionist Anna Pack to present dance workshops and play for dancing.
This month Dave came to teach both the dancers and musicians, among the things he taught was the music and steps for the Rond de l’ile d’Yeu
