#WORLDPLAYASTRATHSPEYDAY

Don't miss our unmissable annual #WorldPlayAStrathspeyDay featuring a concert with an outstanding lineup: pianist Rory Matheson joins acclaimed fiddlers, Anna Robertson, Catriona Price and Adam Sutherland for an afternoon of traditional Scottish music including strathspeys, reels and marches.

And speaking of strathspeys, you can be part of the global music celebration! Part of #WorldPlayAStrathspeyDay involves musicians worldwide sharing their love of Scottish music by recording themselves playing a strathspey and uploading the video online . Simply record yourself playing a strathspey on any instrument, then share your video or audio recording to social media using the hashtag #WorldPlayAStrathspeyDay.

Programmed in collaboration with Hands Up for Trad and presented by Simon Thoumire.
