The workshop will include instruction and inspiration for players of the Stick, the two-handed tapping electric instrument created by Emmett Chapman and popularized in the 1970s and 1980s by Tony Levin, who performed alongside artists including Peter Gabriel and King Crimson. Master performers and teachers of the Stick, Steve Adelson, Bob Culbertson and Greg Howard will lead technique classes and will perform in concert on the first night. Emmett Chapman will present a session to participants via video conference. Hands-on sessions throughout the workshop will inspire and support beginners and intermediate to advanced players, while a closing session on the final day will offer all participants a chance to play together. Gain valuable skills and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow Stick players from around the country. See the schedule for details regarding each instructional session offered during the workshop.
