    Other things we do at Meadowood...

     

    Meadowood's proprietors believe that when people MAKE music they grow in special and important ways.  

    With music, children do better in school, adults make new friendships more easily and elders remain more mentally active. For these reasons, Meadowood does more than sell and service instruments and give lessons.  

    Meadowood creates opportunities for people to play music with and for each other.

    One of the first summer open mics in the back yard at Meadowood
    Open Mics

    Meadowood has hosted open since 1998, at first in the Kutztown Park Bandshell, then on the back porch of Meadowood's original location (233 West Main Street, Kutztown). In 2005, when the store moved to Blandon, the open mic moved there. In 2018, Meadowood joined with Clay on Main to host year-long, indoor open mics at 313 Main Street, Oley: 1st Monday each month, 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

    People frequently ask us for referrals to musicians who can perform at weddings, parties, corporate events... Meadowood is fortunate to be in the midst of a community of very talented local musicians.  We cannot possibly create links to every musician, ensemble and band, we do have links to those with which we have the most contact.

    Connections to Local Musicians
    Roger hosted Meadowood's inaugural evening for Furch guitars
    Special Events

    Meadowood hosts open house events for familiar well-known product lines and to introduce new product lines. At these special promotional events, people get a chance to try things out and share them with other enthusiasts. Often the manufacturers have clinicians at the events. Almost always, the events include refreshments. Each event is a "petting zoo" for instruments & accessories.

    Jams

    Meadowood hosts jam sessions on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. A bluegrass jam with fiddle, guitar, banjo, mandolin, and bass happens every Tuesday. Musicians play bluegrass on those same instruments with a mentor in a "slow jam" for beginning musicians on the 1st and 3rd Thursday nights of the month. On the 2nd Thursday of the month, violin, viola, cello, and bass players gather to play light classical and pop music.

    Friends and family support students in music recital
    Recitals

    Many students look forward to a recital as an opportunity to showcase their accomplishments.  Meadowood's teachers organize occasional recitals for their students, providing a facility, emcee services and accompaniment.  Meadowood's teachers also view the summer open mics (see above) as a recital opportunity for students and often come to play with students in the summer open mics at the store.

    Mike and Paula perform together - sometimes as a duo, sometimes with friends
    Mike & Paula Perform

    Mike and Paula founded Meadowood Music with the belief that sharing music makes life better, that virtuoso performance is breathtaking, but does not replace music that people make together or live music that people share in intimate settings. Mike and Paula perform acoustic music, singing and playing guitar mandolin, fiddle, bass and banjo pretty much anything that strikes their fancy.
