Scottish Tunes: Advanced – 5 day course

Online sales are closed. Please contact us directly for information on availability and bookings.  

Saturday – Tuesday one and a half hours daily. Wednesday one hour

Corrina Hewat

A fun class full of Scottish tunes, from dance tunes to slow airs, from waltzes to strathspeys, we’ll cover a variety of interesting Scottish music. We’ll discuss possible decorations and fingering and also specific ways to arrange the music to give it your own individual personality. Ideas for left hand accompaniment will be given, and manuscript for each of the tunes will be handed out each day. I am happy if you bring a device to record the tunes, to take the music home with you.
