Have you always been curious about bagpipe playing and how these instruments work? Then join this introduction workshop at CaDansa! Here we will try and play bagpipe. Together we will try to make a first melody… of course, thereby we won’t forget the most important part: try to enjoying making music.

For the record: We won’t be playing the Scottish or Irish pipes, but the gurdies and pipes which are traditionally played in France, Belgium or in the Netherlands. Maybe you know them from paintings of Jeroen Bosch or Pieter Breughel?

For whom?
This workshop is for everyone who likes to focus for two hours on playing the bagpipe. Do you have no musical experience? Perfect! It’s an introduction workshop. You don’t have to bring your own instrument, we will bring some bagpipes.

  • We use bagpipes which are provided for free by the Dutch Hurdy-gurdy and Bagpipe Foundation (Stichting Draailier en Doedelzak).
  • You’ll have to sign up for this workshop. The registration opens at October 5th, 16:00 CET.
