Announcing the 2025 David Surette Mandolin Festival at the Concord Community Music School.

There will be workshops on Saturday and Sunday for all levels on things like specific styles and skills, waltzes, how to play tasty back-up for songs, and more. There are classes each period for beginners to advanced levels. Each teacher will offer something for each level so you will get to be with every teacher by the end of the weekend. As always, a set of group tunes will be sent out in advance for you to work on for us to play together. The Saturday concert is included with your fee for the weekend. The Friday night concert in Kittery, Maine will be a separate ticket.

Instructors for the 2025 David Surette Mandolin Festival are Carlo Aonzo, Sharon Gilchrist, Will Patton and Neil Pearlman.
