Join Powers Music School once every month to play modal music together in a group setting! Led by Tev Stevig, these sessions are a way to meet other modal musicians in the Boston area and build a shared repertoire in a variety of modal traditions, including Turkish, Greek, Armenian, Persian, Arabic, and more.


Every month, our community will have access to an mp3 and recorded video (sheet music will also be available for those who would like it) of a new tune for our repertoire together. Session attendees will learn the tune on their own and we will start every session by playing the new tune together several times at a slow to moderate tempo, after which we will play through selections from the rest of our previously shared repertoire. Over time, attendees will build an ever expanding repertoire that can be played at any time with other local musicians.


Musicians ages 10 and up of any background or level of experience are encouraged to attend. Bowed and plucked strings, percussion, woodwinds, brass, and vocals are all appropriate. Piano students can join as vocalists – we all start learning by singing! If you are a beginner or new to modal music, join us to play or sing along, or just listen.

The Modal Music Session is free to attend, with a suggested donation of $20 to cover expenses associated with the venue and time of our session leader. Nobody will be turned away for lack of funds.
