“Introduction
to Mandolin”-The
mandolin is tuned exactly like a violin (fiddle) but has twice as many strings!
It’s not as hard as you would imagine getting started, though. This class will
introduce pick choice, basic chords for accompanying other instruments and
beginning flatpicking. A few loaner mandolins will be available for use.

will be available for class use.
