Strum Along with the Legacy Ukulele Ensemble and Peter Luongo
On Friday, October 17 at 5:30 p.m., Orcas Senior Center welcomes the internationally acclaimed Legacy Ukulele Ensemble from Langley, BC, led by master teacher Peter Luongo, for a lively and inspiring performance. Known for his dynamic teaching style and ability to bring out the best in players, Peter has led generations of musicians to discover the joy of ukulele. Suggested donation for the concert is $15–$20 at the door, with proceeds shared between the Ensemble and the Senior Center.
Earlier that afternoon, Peter will lead two 1½-hour workshops designed for players of all levels. At 1:00 p.m., Peter’s Painless Picking introduces participants to simple fingerpicking techniques that add sparkle to any song. At 3:00 p.m., Peter’s Combo (strum, sing, and pick) blends rhythm, melody, and voice for a fuller musical experience. Each workshop is $25. To register, contact Kathy at kcollister15@gmail.com. Don’t miss this unique day of ukulele magic!
