I'm happy to share news of an event I'll be doing in late June in Dunnville, Ontario, just outside Toronto. I'll be participating in a harmonica teaching intensive at the Shared Harvest Commiunity Farm. My fellow teachers will be Carlos del Junco and Jerome Godboo.
http://www.sharedharvestdunnville.com/calendar/harmonica-retreat-week-end
Jerome just won the Lee Oskar harmonica player award at the IBC. He's a badass. I must confess that I didn't realize how much of a killer he was until I started poking around on YouTube just now and came across this:
Anyway, this is a very exciting event. I've known Carlos since 1989, but this is the first occasion on which we'll actually be teaching and performing on the same bill--and on the same stage. I'll be there with Alan Gross in Blues Doctors guise, but there will surely be a blowoff and I will have to woodshed to keep up with these monstrous Canadians.

I spoke with Kevin at Shared Harvest today. Very nice man. It sounds like a superior venue for such an event.
My wife fell off her chair when I told here there will be a harmonica retreat hosted by three iconic harmonica masters on an organic farm a few hours away from where we live.

Superb player. A google search on Jerome's name yielded this fine performance. ---------- Ted Burke http://www.youtube.com/user/TheoBurke?feature=mhee

oh man oh man oh man!!! Just signed on for a 6 month contract that's based out of Toronto. I'd be working from home on the west coast but they are talking of bringing me out to TO a couple of times. Don't know if an end of term hand off or renewal session would be in the works but I may be in the vicinity anyway for family stuff early July. Arrrrgggggghhhh! ----------
