The weekend starts on Friday night, with the 2nd "Great Scottish Flute Night" - a charity concert with profits being donated to "Scottish Action On Mental Health". I will post details of this concert as a separate event.
A flute session has been arranged to follow the concert in a nearby hostelry.

The teaching part of the day will end with a presentation by a special guest speaker [ not yet announced ], ending at 4.30pm.

The practical and fun part continues with an evening session, from 7.30pm to midnight.

Sunday - ends with a very informal session in a well-known Edinburgh music pub.
