Tim Farrell – “The Weight - A Fingerstyle Celebration of the Musical Legacy of Woodstock”
Friday, October 13, 3:30pm–4:30pm
The Bear Cantina, 295A Tinker Street, Woodstock, NY   See Map

Join us as we celebrate the unique musical legacy of Woodstock with a fingerstyle guitar arrangement of one of the most enduring and beloved songs to originate from the musical community in Woodstock, “The Weight”. This classic song was written by guitarist and songwriter Robbie Robertson at The Band’s famous home Big Pink. It has memorable melody lines, a great feel and indelible characters that make it stick in your head. The setting of the song in Nazareth references the hometown of one of the long-time sponsors of Woodstock Invitational Luthier Showcase, The Martin Guitar Company.

This fingerstyle guitar arrangement is designed for players of all skill levels. A transcription is included in both notation and tablature.
