Herschel Sizemore

I'd like to invite you to join me at the Herschel Sizemore Mandolin Workshop on Saturday, October 25th, 2008 at the Holiday Inn in Roanoke Virginia. I'll be teaching subjects such as learning to play melody, how to play with good tone, tune introductions & endings, "Less is More", and much more. The workshop will be a single-day class, beginning at 9 AM and running until 5 PM. There will be a morning session from 9 AM until noon, with a mid-morning break of 15-20 minutes, then we'll break for lunch from 12 PM until 2 PM. The afternoon session will run from 2 PM to 5 PM, again with a mid-session break of around 15-20 minutes. Coffee, water, and light pastries will be served at both sessions. We will not be serving lunch; however, less than one mile from the Holiday Inn is the Valley View Mall complex, which is home to more than 30 restaurants.

The Holiday Inn is located at 3315 Ordway Drive, Roanoke, Virginia 24012 (the same location as the former Roanoke Bluegrass Weekend) and is offering all workshop attendees a special rate reservation price for overnight rooms @ $89 per night. You may call them direct at 540-362-4500, and be sure to ask for the discounted rate for our workshop. Enrollment fee for the workshop is $150 per person, and must be paid in advance by check or money order. Payment for the workshop (separate charge from room reservation) should be made payable to Herschel Sizemore Mandolin Workshop and mailed to 5720 Barns Ave. NW, Roanoke, Virginia 24019. Questions about the workshop may be directed to this email, herschelsizemore@aol.com and we'll try to answer them as quickly as possible. Space is limited, so I encourage you to reserve early.

Come spend the day with us, and be sure to bring a recording device for later reference.
