WHAT IS … TRADITIONAL MUSIC?
WITH CLARE FRANCES MACNEIL

In this week of Edinburgh Tradfest, you might think this a daft question: but come and challenge your preconceptions with a fresh perspective from guest speaker, Claire Frances MacNeil. Claire is a native of Barra, Gaelic singer, fiddler, scholar and recipient of the Gold Medal for traditional singing at the 2024 National Mòd.

Stay on afterwards for a free session of music from members of the Scots Music Group at Cafe Cèilidh.
