4 sessions from Mon 28 Jul 2025 [Show]
Beginner / Improver level is aimed at students who have been playing a minimum of 1 year. Players should have a sound knowledge of how to hold the accordion, and be able to play simple tunes. We will learn tunes by ear as well as from sheet music, so a basic knowledge of reading sheet music is helpful. Below are examples of the level of pieces we will learn.
Classes will be held at Kirkwall Grammar School on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 10am till 3.30pm. On Thursday there is a rehearsal for the concert from 10am till 1pm for all classes. The concert will be on Thursday Evening at the Orkney Theatre, Kirkwall and will showcase the week’s learning.
