Big news!

We are working on an online fundraiser for our generous hosts, Artichoke Community Music, and we would like you to play a part. It's going to work something like this:

Make a cell phone video of yourself playing a song (or reciting a poem), send it to us, and we will present it as part of an online broadcast to be scheduled soon.
We're planning on having the loose ends pulled together by the end of the month, so if you want to contribute, don't delay.
You can upload your video to the SSV Google Drive or e-mail it to us at ssv4pdx@gmail.com. Contact Chris if you need help.

Here's what will be happening on Sunday, August 16 at 2 p.m.

We'll be at the usual place at the usual time and we hope you will too!

Chris will be Coaching, with Trish Hosting.

We will play What'cha Got?, as we always do. We're eager for you to share what is lighting you up creatively.

We'll play:
Key To The Highway
I Can See Clearly Now

I Still Miss Someone

By the way, if you haven't visited our Google Drive, where we keep the song sheets, e-mail Chris to receive an invitation. And, as always, please explore YouTube for different versions.

And we will try something new, a quick lesson we hope will become a continuing feature of our online sessions called Short Takes: How Music Works. This week's topic will be: Intervals.

Here's how to get to the workshop:

And as always, turning on your computer's, tablet's, or phone's video camera is totally up to you. If you'd rather just participate in the audio, that's okay. But do unmute long enough to tell us who you are, in case your device's name is different from yours.
