Family Friendly Taster Session 

We had a Family Friendly Taster Session in March, with over 30 people attending, offering a fun and welcoming introduction to Scottish traditional music for new participants and families.

Family Friendly Taster Sessions are always a highlight, bringing the joy of Scottish traditional music to those who may not have experienced it before.

It was a fantastic day, with opportunities to try a wide range of instruments — from fiddle and clarsach to chanter, mandolin, cajon and voice — giving everyone the chance to explore and experience making music together. 

It was brilliant to see so many people getting involved, and a great reminder of the enthusiasm for traditional music across Aberdeen. We look forward to welcoming many of these new faces to future SC&T activities!
