Ward Irish Music Archives
The Ward Irish Music Archives hosts a tune swap and slow session from 1:00 to 3:00 pm. Jeff Ksiazek, WIMA's Archivist, teaches a tune during the first hour, and the remaining time is spent playing tunes in a slow session.
The goal is to introduce different tunes into Milwaukee's traditional Irish music community and to... rekindle interest in tunes that don't get played much in our sessions. The slow session is a perfect opportunity for newcomers to Irish music to play tunes in a safe, stress free environment.
Come learn a tune and have a slow session in the Archives!
