Dyckman Farmhouse Museum: Inwood Haven – Making Melodies of Inwood 

Join Dyckman Farmhouse for a family-friendly workshop on creating melodies inspired by our Inwood neighborhood with violinist Evelyn Petcher Brandes!

What does Inwood sound like?  What music comes to mind when you think of Inwood?  Join us for a musical family workshop for adults and kids ages 5-18! Participants will learn how to use flashcards, boomwhackers, and bells to create melodies and rhythms inspired by our Inwood neighborhood with local composer Evelyn Petcher Brandes and teaching artist Julie Lawrence.

Your musical ideas from this workshop will come to life in Ms. Brandes’ newest musical composition premiering this September at Dyckman Farmhouse Museum!

Any accompanying adult is considered a participant of this program. Accompanying adults and youth must reserve a ticket. Participants may be photographed during this workshop and will be asked to sign a media release form.

Jazz WaHi: Masterclass with Jazz Vocalist Jane Irving

Jazz WaHi is excited to present a masterclass with Jazz Vocalist, Jane Irving. In this workshop, Jane will work with 3 or 4 vocalists and guide them through her method of storytelling through song.

The workshop will focus on:
• Phrasing
• Breath support
• Authenticity
• Letting the lyrics be your guide
• How to use what you have
• Techniques to offer choices
• Singing around the melody
• Stage craft / working with your accompanist

Mark Kross will be on hand as the accompanist so Jane can work directly with the singers. We can accept up to 15 vocalists but only 3 or 4 will work directly with Jane. If you’re interested in singing, please indicate this when you contact Jazz WaHi

FREE! Space is limited. Reservations required.
