A Six-Week Class with Liz Rabson Schnore
Saturdays at 3 - 4 PM: 10/3, 10/10, 10/17, 10/24, 10/31, 11/7

Advanced Ukulele Ensemble is for players looking to break out of basic chord-strumming and step into true ensemble play, integrating a range of techniques. We will arrange distinct parts, with bass, rhythm and melody. In addition to advanced chord changes and keys we will focus on fingerstyle exercises that will help build muscle memory. You'll come out of Advanced Ukulele Ensemble equipped for dynamic play in a group and with enhanced instrument skills for wherever you and your uke go next.

Feel free to email Liz, liz@lizschnore.com if you have any questions!

Liz Rabson Schnore is a Brooklyn-based musician steeped in the roots traditions of blues, country, and string band music. The daughter of acclaimed blueswoman Ann Rabson, Liz grew up in Fredericksburg, Virginia, but has called Brooklyn home for the past twenty-nine years. A multi-instrumentalist, she primarily plays ukulele, but also guitar, bass, and harmonica. You can find her performing with the Dirty Mother String Band and supporting other local artists as a side-woman. Liz shares her musical knowledge as a ukulele mentor and instructor. She's also a driving force in the Brooklyn music scene, organizing events like the Boathouse Jam and the Gowanus Jug & String Band Sessions at the Gowanus Canal Dredgers Canoe Club Boathouse. Her passion for ukulele, jamming, and folk/roots music makes her a vibrant presence in the community.

Class fees:

Despite the rising costs and lower funding streams that are affecting cultural institutions, Jalopy still wants to be a home for everyone seeking to learn and develop their musical practice. Therefore, this semester, we are offering the classes based on a sliding scale, inviting each student to choose a price based on their income level. Those of you who can afford to pay more than the breakeven cost, will be making it feasible for Jalopy to give scholarships to those who cannot afford the courses.

Please note that these numbers are only suggestions, and you are free to pay what feels manageable and appropriate for you based on all your life's circumstances, not just annual income. As usual, you can inquire and apply for financial aid by emailing lynette@jalopytheatre.org.

Sliding Scale Chart based on Annual income:

$0 - $20k / year: scholarship (partial or full depending on availability)

$20k-$30k / year: $225
