Kendall Rogers concert 6pm PDT, 9pm EDT

**Scroll down for Zoom info **
BACDS Wednesday Waltz Concerts presents:
Kendall Rogers from Texas

Kendall has been playing traditional dance tunes since he started picking them out on the piano at about age 4 or 5. He has been performing on piano in public at American folk dance events since about age 15, adding other related dance and music events over the next 25 years. Steeped in the rich Appalachian folk heritage of his native Kentucky, alongside the Celtic/American/Canadian/British/Danish musical traditions of his family's dance customs, Kendall's playing has also been shaped by classical and jazz training ... plus a healthy disregard for the rules. So long as there's life and movement in the music, Kendall is happy to play, especially for dancers!

(Kendall currently resides in Houston, TX with his wife, Lisa, and their greyhound, Ruby. Two of them are desperately missing the dancing. The other has two left feet and is a very good girl.)

Have you tried dancing on Zoom?
One of the BEST things is that it allows everyone to interact in their own way. You can arrange (via Chat) to PIN videos with a friend while dancing. You can also dance at home, or enjoy watching all the dancing, or just listen and be transformed by the music.

We have 500 person capacity, so invite your friends, musicians, and anyone who would enjoy waltz music or dancing.

For your safety, if you want to dance at home:
Please clear a space, consider wearing shoes if you're used to dancing in shoes, stay hydrated, go easy if you haven't been dancing regularly.

****************************************************************
We have increased Zoom security, for your safety.

ZOOM TIPS:
* Please MUTE yourself unless you are talking during the chat times.
* If you have issues with internet, you can turn OFF your video and that might help.
* Do not use web browser, it has poor function. Download the Zoom app.
* Video options (top R of PC screen): Speaker view (puts the musicians center screen) or Gallery view (lets you scroll through pages of participants).
* You can also "PIN" any video and it will stay centered. You can PIN anyone and they won't know, and any number can PIN the same person. You can also "CHAT" with a friend and PIN each other's videos to "dance together"
To PIN a video on a PC, hover over the video and click on the 3 dots in the corner. Select "PIN video".
You can also go to "Participants list" and find someone by name, then click on them and PIN should be an option.
* iOS and Android devices have different options. It may work on a phone to double tap the video you want to PIN.

We look forward to seeing you!
