MSU to offer traditional music classes

Renowned bluegrass musician Dr. Everett Lilly will be instructor

Fred Pace
Register-Herald Reporter

Mountain State University will offer a number of traditional music classes this fall.

According to Dr. Everett Lilly, the classes have become increasingly popular with students. Classes will be offered in guitar, mandolin, fiddle and bluegrass singing.

Lilly, a renowned bluegrass musician, will be teaching the classes, which are scheduled for Friday mornings in Odell Hall, Room 102, beginning on Aug. 29.

“Our classes are practical, and hands-on and we keep an informal atmosphere,” Lilly said. “The classes are geared to the student's level and there is ample room for beginning students. Also, senior citizens can take the classes at no charge.”

“We have even seen the development of a music group, The Songcatchers, as a result of these classes and that was entirely unexpected,” Lilly added. “The group has been very successful performing at a variety of community events and venues and has even been invited to perform at the International Bluegrass Association Fanfest in Nashville in October.”

For additional information regarding registering for any of the classes students may call 304-929-1365 or e-mail at evrlilly@mountainstate. edu.
