Balfolk Music Session

Balfolk Music Session is a guided musicians’ jam led by Mark Vidor, exploring traditional and contemporary folk dance music from France, Belgium, Brittany, and elsewhere. The repertoire includes bourrée, mazurka, an dro, hanter dro, and other dance forms. Although the music is intended for dancing, this is a playing session rather than a dance event.

Musicians of all instruments and experience levels are welcome, and no prior experience with balfolk music is required. Music will be provided at the session, with electronic materials available in advance.
