Ken Harper layin' it down

We would like to welcome Ken Harper to our roster of music teachers

Not only is he proficienty with Celtic material, he has also studied jazz at Humber, played across Canada with Garden Bros Circus (a tightrope kind of a gig for a musician….improv all the way) and basked in the presence of the late great Oscar Peterson.  He holds a BFA in jazz studies from York University.  Whether you’re interested in rudiments, kit, jazz or a little traditional drumming - Ken has lots to offer.

Team MMMusicworks grows stronger still with the addition of Roger Plant. Welcome Roger! Roger is a very talented guitarist on both acoustic and electric. A veritable musical encyclopedia, his styles range as far and wide as his taste; his roots are in the blues, jazz, folk and rock. A funny and personable fellow, Roger brings something unique to the table while conforming to the mission of all our teachers: our mandate? To inspire! Call Kathryn now to book an appointment with Roger before all his availability is all gone to other good homes!

…ok, even I admit it. I googled the below clue and found a lot of tennis players… here’s a new clue that may shed some light:  Zimmerman.

Well that was a lot of fun! Congratulations to Elizabeth and Nathan for cleverly putting the clues together and unearthing the Hidden Treasure! And so cool to have found it while the store was packed with well-wishers as we embark upon our 3rd year in business! Honourable mentions go to Brianna MacSpurren, Clint & AJ Shewchuck and Madeleine Poirier for there tenacious efforts and insight into some archaic clues… the Walrus is Paul, guys! And there he was (and still is) with his finger pointing right at the prize… so. It’s now Sunday, our first Sunday open for Christmas and it’s quiet… so I guess I’ll hide another one… Here’s your first clue:  Živojinović ! Long Live the Treasure Hunt!

…because it’s our birthday!!  Musicworks turns 2 today and to celebrate we’re throwing a party this Saturday, December 5th.  Candles (all 2 of ‘em) are set ablaze at 2 pm and there will be cake for everyone who comes out to sing to us.  Then the live music starts and doesn’t stop until we close - teachers and students alike will play their seasonal favourites or whatever else springs to their fingers.  Add to the festivities the SALE prices that appear at 10 am Saturday morning and you could spend a whole day here - playing, singing, eating cake not to mention getting your Christmas shopping done (we’ve got something for everyone!).
