Folk Harmonic is an innovative group music class with a focus on building musical communication and ensemble music making. It captures the experience of playing in an orchestra, without the need for any classical training. Repertoire is chosen from multiple musical traditions, arranged and adapted for folk instruments and voices. The majority of the class is taught by ear, with additional resources such as recordings, sheet music and tutorial videos provided as necessary. Folk Harmonic provides interactive and empowering musical progress regardless of participant level. Open to those who play guitar, accordion, banjo, fiddle, bass, cello, viola, mandolin, piano and ukulele, this class is a place for people to come together and share the joy of community music making.
This class is a safe and encouraging environment for people of all levels of ability and musical experience to play music in a group setting. Bring your instrument, voice, and your sense of fun for an evening of music making with friends.

"Before COVID we took a Uke workshop from Ali in Sointula. They did the most amazing chord progression that we would use over and over again. I felt like we progressed a year in that one weekend.
Ali has a gift and I would follow their light in a heartbeat"
