Workshop Bookings and Prices

Birnam and Callander Events

Birnam

Callander Introductory Workshop £15; Intermediate Workshop £15

To reserve a place for any of the Birnam or Callendar events, contact us (info@blowandblast.co.uk ) and give us details of your instrument and standard. At present, we are happy to accept payment on the day.

Perth Events

For more information, prices and to make bookings for the Perth events, contact Jenn (tel: 01738 477722 or e-mail jminchin@horsecross.co.uk )

The Perth workshops are being run as part of the Horsecross creative learning programme and are therefore described as 'mild' and 'medium'. The 'mild' workshop is roughly equivalent to our 'introductory' category; 'medium' should be about the same level as 'intermediate'.

General Information

Places are limited, so book early to avoid disappointment. This also gives us more time to plan the music to suit each player's capabilities.

If, after booking, you find you will be unable to come, please let us know as soon as possible. Your absence may mean that we are obliged to change some of the music. Also, someone else might like to be offered the opportunity to participate.
