Hands On Music Weekends

WITNEY SUPERSQUEEZE 2022
18th - 20th November

Here at last is the tutor list for this year’s Supersqueeze, a stunning line-up of some of the best box players around, offering a wide range of music, skills and styles, encompassing English and Continental traditions.

Mel Biggs (Melodeon)
Murray Grainger (Piano Accordion)
Robert Harbron (English Concertina)
John Kirkpatrick (Melodeon and Anglo Concertina)
Geert Oude Weernink (Melodeon)
Amy Thatcher (Piano Accordion)
Dave Townsend (English Concertina)
Andy Turner (Anglo Concertina)

BOOKING IS NOW OPEN

Bookings go through the website's 'shop' system, so you need to follow through to the 'basket' stage and make you payment via Paypal. There's no need to open a Paypal account, simply pay using a debit/credit card.

Course Units are still being finalised, and the list will be available in a week or so. When you receive this final information, please choose a first and second choice for units A (Saturday morning), B (Saturday Afternoon) and C (Sunday). Some units are very popular and become full quickly, and places will be assigned strictly in the order in which the initial bookings were received.

With great regret and a heavy heart I have to announce that Witney Supersqueeze will not take place this year. Unsurprisingly, the school is currently unable to give any assurances that we will be able to use the premises for the weekend, and are delaying a final decision until the start of the September term. This is much too late to cancel if it becomes necessary, and I also feel that a lot of people will be reluctant to commit to the weekend or even to take the risk, however small.

I plan to run the weekend next year, with the same tutors, on 19th - 21st November.

Stay well

All the best
