Autumn dates and plans for FluteFling to be announced
The rain may have returned, but it’s still the Summer and the Edinburgh Festival is about to kick off. However, it is a timely nudge for organising Autumn events and I am pleased to say that there will be a few FluteFling things happening. Dates and tickets are still being finalised, but here’s a quick look at what is coming up.
New monthly workshops in Partick
Sharon Creasey begins FluteFling West, a monthly trad flute and whistle workshops in Partick Burgh Hall Lesser Hall on Saturday afternoons 2-4pm. Sharon is still putting together ticketing details but her dates are:
- 15 September
- 20 October
- 10 November
This looks to be is the first workshop of its kind in the Glasgow area and is a great opportunity for anyone in the west looking to work on their music. Sharon’s dates won’t clash with the Edinburgh ones either, so it would be possible to maximise your flute and whistle time and attend both or pick and choose. As soon tickets etc are set up, we will let you know.
Monthly FluteFling workshops in Edinburgh from September
Gordon Turnbull’s monthly Saturday afternoon workshops resume in Portobello, Edinburgh on 22 September, remaining dates tbc at this stage but they will not be the same dates as Sharon’s. These will take place once more on Saturday afternoons 1-4pm at Tribe Porty. Dates so far:
- 22 September
- October date tbc
- November date tbc
- December date tbc
Tickets to be arranged very soon, once the Aberdeen weekend is finalised. Talking of which…
FluteFling Aberdeen weekend 2018
Aberdeen FluteFling weekend will return for second year, with added whistles. Details to be confirmed at this stage but hopefully early November. Again, an announcement will be made as soon as we have things in place.
Watch out for updates on these events and also more going into 2019. If you haven’t already, sign up for the newsletter to hear the announcements directly. There’s a lot to look forward to. Until then, enjoy your music and the rest of the Summer.
