Elphinstone Fiddlers

The Elphinstone Fiddlers is a group comprising (as the name suggests) mainly fiddlers. However, viola, cello, double bass, flute and accordion players are also most welcome as are piano accompanists.

Elphinstone Fiddlers meets between 4.30 and 5.30 pm on Wednesday afternoons in MacRobert room 055.

The group performs at concerts and ceilidhs. It plays a variety of traditional Scottish music, ranging from Gow and Skinner to the more recent compositions of Bert Murray and Hector MacAndrew. It also plays some country dance music if required for ceilidhs. The group has access to a substantial collection of music to keep the repertoire varied and interesting. They recently performed with Eddie McGuire and the Harmony Ensemble.

No audition is required; you will however need to be able to read music. To join, please contact Hannah Graham - hannah.graham.08@aberdeen.ac.uk
