We’re happy to welcome back our old friends, Arugula, this week. Margaret Mathews brings fine dances from years of collecting.
We’re at back at Temple Beth El this week, since the Webster Firemen’s Carnival is taking over downtown Webster.
Caller
Margaret Mathews
With more than 35 years experience as dancer, musician and caller, Margaret’s easy-going, engaging style gets everyone out on the dance floor. Her ability to smoothly adjust the dances to the experience level of the dance community make it a fun and accessible evening for everyone. In addition to contra dances, she calls for traditional Old Time square dances, Civil War reenactments, hoedowns, weddings and other joy filled occasions. Her dance calling has taken her up and down the East coast, from the Carolinas to Vermont, as well as the Northwest and Canada. When not calling, Margaret plays bass in Wild Root String Band, a Southern Old Time band.
Band
Arugula
Mike Hoeschele (fiddle & mandolin), Silvia Sörensen (flute), Barb Seppeler (piano), Fred Filbrich (bass)
Dependably enjoyable Rochester regulars, Arugula plays for both Contra and English Country dances.
