Coming up very soon is the Edinburgh Youth Gaitherin which is a long weekend of music workshops for young people aged 13-18.

Organised in conjunction with Hands Up For Trad, the workshops will be led by Edinburgh-based musicians and educators Dr Lori Watson and Dr Phil Alexander. Both are tutors at the University of Edinburgh.

As if that weren’t enough, we will also have guest tutors dropping in throughout the weekend.

All are professional musicians appearing as part of the headline line up. They are:

Jarlath Henderson and Innes Watson from Duncan Chisholm’s band.

Kaitlyn Ross and Megan MacDonald from Eabhal.

Hardeep Deerhe and Clare Robertson who are part of our big commission show Come All Ye.

EYG takes place at the Traverse Theatre on Saturday 30 April, Sunday 1 May and Monday 2 May and culminates in a performance at the Traverse on the Monday.
