A house concert is an up-close and personal way to share music with friends and talented musicians in a relaxed and casual way. It fills the ears and the soul, and you head home remembering a special moment in your music memories!
Susie Burke owns the sweet, yet powerful voice of an angel. She’ll pull you into each song as she cap- tures the full meaning of every song she sings. Her guitar skills are a perfect complement to her voice. David is a master musician... if it has strings and frets, David can make it soar! Listen as he plays different instru- ments through the night. His warm voice is a perfect compliment to Susie’s, and together they make some of our very favorite music.

SUSIE’S WORKSHOP OFFERINGS
SING IT ‘ROUND AND ‘ROUND
“A Round is a Circle, a Circle of Sound”!
So the song says, and so it is.
There is a whole world of rounds to be discovered. They are a fun and satisfying way to sing in a group, with instant harmonies arising from different groups singing the same part with stacked entrances. (Remember singing Row, Row, Row Your Boat at camp or school or in the car?) Come join Susie in singing rounds from the simple to the sublime.
COME FOR TO SING
Few things feel better in life than singing together!
Let’s sing some great chorus songs together and then
we will learn harmony parts to a slow shanty, “Bold Riley”, and a more hopping, “Wait ‘Til I Put on my Robe”. And then we’ll take it on the road, or at least home to our friends and families.
