Enjoy checking out some of our recent past events! We are quite a busy branch and usually have about three workshops in the autumn, three or four in the spring, an end-of-year concert and several come-and-try opportunities throughout the year. Thank you to our inspiring tutors and all our harp players!
June Concert at Inverness Cathedral, led by Cheyenne Brown & Emma Wright:
01 June 2019Bill Taylor Presentation and Workshop 2019
On Saturday 1st June we had the pleasure of welcoming renowned harpist Bill Taylor who ran an afternoon of workshops all about the history of the harp, complete with the chance to make our own horsehair strings! We also had the chance to hear demonstrations of medieval tunes played on wire, horsehair and gut strung harps of the period, and had a go ourselves at learning some medieval pieces. A wonderful and educational afternoon! Thanks to Bill Taylor for this fantastic afternoon. If you missed this we look forward to offering a come and try session with Bill in the future!
