Join in as Shambellie House is taken over by up to 25 intermediate musicians and immerse yourselves in a weekend of music with the Firelight Trio. Learn from the artists with a choice of workshops and informal evening jam sessions. A whole weekend of learning, relaxing and enjoying in this very special setting with like minded folk. Food and tuition included with accommodation locally if required.
The main purpose of this weekend is to have fun playing music together, and develop your musical skills in the process. There will be a welcome meal and a Firelight Trio concert on the Friday night, then 2 days of music workshops, Saturday and Sunday, led by Gavin Marwick, Ruth Morris and Phil Alexander.
Some sessions will be individual and some group, tailored to the level of the people who sign up. Workshops will be varied with some focusing on melody and some on accompaniment – creating something that we can all perform together at the end of the weekend. Teaching will be by partly by ear and partly using written music. If you only do one or the other, you will still be able to participate. People who sign up should be at an intermediate level on any instrument.
