Vic Rawlings is a guitarist, experimenter, cellist, and banjo-picker from Boston who is deeply involved in an array of different musics. He is an accomplished music teacher who visits TAS to teach three times a year.
For the second time this year Vic is spending two full days (Feb 28-29) instructing some of our students in both the basics and finer points of banjo, guitar, ukelele , and bass.
He begins with how to listen and how to think in musical terms. While doing this, he introduces basic, effective technique on the instrument. He believes simple, straightforward habits lead to good playing.
Vic has been a integral part of Boston's avant-garde/improvisation scene for years. His specialty in the improv scene is a elaborate, non-linear series of circuits and tone generators that he can nudge and constrain, but not necessarily predict. The results are often strikingly beautiful and surprising. He has a great feel for playing with non-traditional musicians.
Stay tuned for details on our sunrise to sunset noise and tone improvisation session this June.
