These will be northeast style round-robin sessions with a mix of old-time, New England, Irish, and Canadian tunes along with traditional and contemporary songs, key changes at the whim of the person who calls the tune. Tunes will be drawn from the first volume of the Portland Collection, the Fiddler’s Fakebook, the New England Fiddler’s Repertoire, the Waltz Book, and beyond.

Minerva Jams includes present and emeritus faculty members and students of Union College.
