SUMMARY:Meetup - January 25\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:“If music be the food of love\, play on!”\n\n“Never have I loved our home more than in these past couple of weeks\, seeing our communities come together to kindle hope and cradle our neighbors in this\, our city of dreams. Let’s get together and sing some songs that speak to dear Los Angeles\, California. Music is a salve in trying times\, and I can think of no better folx to make it with. I love LA\, and I love the Pluckin’ Strummers!” – Jadrian\nAll the songs are in PDF form so there is no need to bring either the blue or yellow books.\nClick here to Download the Songlist. \n\nHere’s my current list\, but I’m still editing… \n\n\nI Love L.A. – Randy Newman\n\n\nFree Fallin’ – Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers\n\n\nCalifornia Dreamin’ – Mamas and the Papas\n\n\nAll I Wanna Do – Sheryl Crow\n\n\nGoing to California – Led Zeppelin\n\n\nIt Never Rains in Southern California – Albert Hammond\n\n\nHollywood Waltz – Eagles\n\n\nLittle Old Lady From Pasadena – The Beach Boys\n\n\nSunset and Vine – Waylon Jennings\n  \n\n\n9 AM to 9:45 AM –This week we will have warm-ups and ensemble discussion starting at\n9:00am. Then we will break-up into two groups. One will be:\n\n\nA beginner instruction set from Ellen.\n\n\nYou will learn how to properly hold the ukulele\, placement of fretting hand and a basic strum. We will also learn a 2-chord song by ear. Along with that set Magda will concurrently be teaching a lesson on The Circle of Fifths.\n\n\nUnlocking (or freaking out over) the Circle of Fifths: A Musical Roadmap\n\n\nDescription:\n\n\nDive into the world of music theory with our workshop on the Circle of Fifths! This interactive session will demystify one of music’s most powerful (and mysterious) tools\, helping you understand key signatures\, easily find notes for individual chords\, chord relationships\, and harmonic progressions.\n\n\nPerfect for beginners and seasoned musicians alike\, you’ll gain practical insights to enhance your basic understanding of how music work. This includes tips/structure for songwriting\, improvisation\, and overall musicality. Join us and explore how the Circle of Fifths can change the way you hear and create music!\n\n\nThe presentation will include hands-on drawing/notation and using your ukulele. Bring a pencil (different colors if you have them.) If you have a notebook or iPad\, that’s perfect but we will provide blank sheets of paper if you need it.\n\n\nAll attendees will receive a free sticker. (Who doesn’t love stickers?) UPDATE NOTE:  Due to weather in Vermont\, the stickers might not be delivered in time. 🙁  – Magda (Don’t worry I have Version 1.0 stickers\, if the new ones don’t come in.)\n\n\n\n9:50 AM to 10:00 AM -Breaktime\, and a chance to mingle and share snacks and refreshments.\n\n\n10:00 to 11:15 AM – This will be our classic strum session\, performing a list of songs chosen by our guest leader.\n\n\n11:15 AM to 11:30 – Second Breaktime.\n\n\n11:30 AM to 12:00 Individual performance time! I really hope we can get many people to sign up. I would love to see some of our new Strummers stretch their wings. Then we need to pack up and exit the building before Noon.\n  \n\n\nDisclaimers:\n\n\nMasks are no longer mandatory\, however\, if you feel more comfortable wearing one\, please do.\n\n\nIt is very important to the church that we have completely exited the building and cleaned up behind us before the next group arrives. So\, depending on the number of performance signups\, we may or may not get to all of them. Any member who signs up but does not get to perform will be moved to the top of the list for the next meeting.\n\n\nAny member who wishes to be a guest presenter/teacher needs to contact me the week before the meeting\, let me know what you plan to present and provide me early copies of any material you will be handing out.\n\n\nAs there are only a few music stands readily available to us\, if you have a music stand\, please bring it with you.\n\n\nThe address of C.C.L.A. is 3852 Edenhurst Ave Los Angeles CA 90039
