Newkulele Festival 2026 Workshop: Newkulele Street Band
About
Workshop for brass, wind and percussion.All instruments and all levels are welcome to join this street band workshop presented by Lyndal & Strat, where you'll learn a couple of grooving tunes to take to the streets of Carrington!
Looking for brass, reeds and percussion instruments - from beginners to soloists, and other instruments like accordions, and woodwind are also welcome.
The tunes will be learned mainly aurally but charts will be available as a back up. It’s a chance to sing and play outside the parameters of what you normally do, to get the feeling of being a part of something bigger and to have fun and spread joy!
Audience participation is key and the skill level and teaching techniques used ensures this workshop is accessible to people of all ages.
Lyndal Chambers & Brian Strating are experienced performers and community music facilitators from Victoria, who love empowering people in their own music making journeys. They draw their material from a wide range of sources, with colourful parade tunes being a specialty! They like to keep the music accessible with room for stepping out. They will be accompanied by Newcastle's own master of percussion Benjie (Earthen Rhythms) so if you have a drum or percussion instrument, this is your chance to play with a full marching street band.
