Event information

This weekend residential in rural Devon is for instrumental musicians who would like to develop the tools for arranging traditional music for ensemble.

Each of the three experienced tutors will explore different techniques, rotating groups of players to produce dynamic arrangements of traditional music from Scandinavia, Brittany, Ireland and beyond.

The course will take place at the stunning location of Leighon House, a stone's throw from Hound Tor on Dartmoor. This is a weekend of oral learning. Participants should feel comfortable learning by ear and memorising parts. Please bring a recording device.

Weekend tickets include free camping (for those who bring their own tent), a social evening on Friday, all meals, sessions and workshops.

The event will finish at 4pm on Sunday 29th May.

We like to be inclusive so a reduced rate is available for those on a low income. Over 16s are welcome if accompanied by an adult.

Glamping in the grounds of the house is also available at an additional cost of £189 for 2 nights. Alternatively, ask for a local accommodation list if you would like to book your own.

Once you have booked we will contact you for more info and provide you with directions and course details. For more information email Griselda at gris_sanderson@hotmail.com
