<b>Subject:</b> <b>This Year's Blind Musicians Group Meeting is a BYOI
Event!</b><br><br>
Hi Musical Friends:<br><br>
I know what you're thinking: "I've heard of BYOB (bring your own
bottle), and maybe even BYOD (bring your own device), but what is a BYOI
event?" Bring your own instrument, of course!<br><br>
The leaders of the Blind Musicians Group are excited to announce that a
portion of our meeting at this year's convention will be dedicated to a
freewheeling "jam session" in which we will be able to make
music together, learning from each other and having fun along the way. We
have observed the many posts on this list asking for tips on learning and
playing certain instruments, and we have responded by organizing what we
hope will be a good opportunity for all who are interested to bounce
ideas off each other as we collaborate with our fellow Federation
musicians. Who knows? We may even get Linda to sing for us!<br><br>
As long as you can bring your instrument of choice to convention, you are
welcome to join the fun! Don't worry, my fellow pianists—thanks to our
national ooffice, we'll have a full-sized keyboard available. Singers
also have nothing to fear—we know, of course, that our voices are
instruments in theiir own right, and they are the most portable
instruments in all of music. If you have recently written or arranged an
original song, we would love to hear it! So bring your instrument, some
songs, and your enthusiasm, and join us on July 4 at 1:00 PM in Suwanee
19 for what is sure to be a great time. Let's make music
together!<br><br>
See you in Orlando, <br><br>
Chris Nusbaum and Linda Mentink, Coordinators<br>
Blind Musicians Group<br>
National Federation of the Blind</blockquote><div id="m_-516595036839104818DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2"><br>
