  • Sunday, 1/12/25, 4:30 - 7:30 pm -- Verlene will be performing with Celtic Moon at Wheelhouse Willow Glen, located at 1173 Lincoln Ave., San Jose, CA.
  • Saturday, 1/18/25, 10 am - 12 pm -- Verlene will be presenting a two-hour online workshop, "Swedish Songs and Tunes" open to all levels and all instruments and singers. If you took either or both of the Scandinavian and Nordic wrokshops, here are another 8 that are from Sweden. We'll listen to YouTube performances of the tunes and discuss some of the interesting rhythms that are particular to Swedish music. You will get arrangements that can be played on lever harp, pedal harp, or piano, in addition to lead sheets with melody, lyrics in Swedish with English translations, and chords for singers, guitarists, and other instrumentalists. I’ve also added guitar tablature for all the songs and tunes so a guitarist can either play chords using the lead sheet or play melody and chords with the tablature. Cost: $30 per person. Register here!

We will listen to YouTube videos and also talk about what makes a song a "lullaby" and how you can improvise while keeping the lullaby elements intact.  You will get arrangements that can be played on lever harp, pedal harp, or piano, in addition to lead sheets with melody, lyrics (in both the original languages and English translations), and chords for singers, guitarists, and other instrumentalists.
