We are very pleased to announce the second Aberdeen "FluteFling" - now incorporating whistles, as well.

Sat. 17th - 9.30 - 1630 : 2 flute classes and 1 whistle class will rotate between our 3 tutors who this year are :
Gordon Turnbull [ "simple-system" flute and whistle ]

- and we are particularly pleased to be having as our guest tutor and speaker, Dougie Pincock, ex-"Battlefield Band" member for 7 years and Director of the "School Of Excellence in Traditional Music" in Plockton on the west coast of Scotland, since its' inauguration in 2000.
The afternoon will end with a "Question & Answer" session with Dougie and the other tutors.
A communal meal will be arranged in a local restaurant for those who wish to participate.
An evening session which may include a few "performance" spots from the tutors.
Sunday - lunchtime / afternoon "Farewell" session.
Full cost = "£50 Concessions = "£40 A "link" to pre-book will be created and posted here soon.
Session venues are still under negotiation. I will post further details as they come in to play.
