Do you play an instrument? Join our in-house youth Ceilidh Band! Learn traditional tunes, develop arrangements, and take part in performance opportunities both at the centre and around the island.
Suitable for young musicians in Primary 7 or above. We practice every Wednesday, and all sheet music and chords are provided. Some experience on an instrument is required, but learners are welcome to join to gain more practice and performance experience.
Bring your instrument. Key-board, guitars, whistles and bodhrans are available if needed.
The session will be led by Eilidh Young, an arts worker, music teacher and pipe-band drummer. To find out more, email Eilidh at: eyoung1x@gnes.net
Youth Trad is generally held in the Green room. On occasion it will be in the Community room or gallery.
A full term ticket is available at £50. Individual weekly tickets are available at £5 / £4 with family membership. We can make tickets available free of charge for children who would benefit from Youth Trad, but for whom cost would be a barrier. Contact moira@anlanntair.com or joe@anlanntair.com for details.
