60-min Workshop, Bring your harp!

W6 Wendy Stewart - Scottish Music


Workshop Handout: DOWNLOAD HERE

Scottish music certainly has a distinctive flavour but where does that come from? One theory connects an inspiration for the pointed strathspey rhythm to the jagged mountain profiles of the Highlands. Whatever the root we`ll explore some of Wendy`s favourite Scottish repertoire and try out the Scots Snap, 6/8 pipe march decorations and fitting chordal harmonies for various melodies. Bring your harp and any questions / theories!
