The Border Gaitherin is a traditional music weekend festival that WILL be going ahead. Based in and throughout the Scottish Border town of Coldstream, on the River Tweed, May 5-7th Weekend will see a substantial tuition and workshop 'menu' with special interest to younger players, but also pretty compelling for older hands given the quality of the tutors. There will be concerts, and sessions all over the town, and to cap it all the Douglas-Home stately home The Hirsel holds its Bank Holiday weekend craft fair (they have a complex of workshop units there plus many guest exhibitors) to coincide. Names? Try: Jennifer and Hazel Wrigley (fiddle and guitar); Simon McKerrell (pipes and Scottish smallpipes); Jimmy Nagle (Borders fiddle); Ian Lowthian (accordion); Karin Ingram (dance); Rebecca Knorr (flute and whistle); Wendy Weatherby (cello and singing); Keith Easdale (bodhran); Lori Watson, Kathleen Graham, Fiona Young, Donal Brown, Malcolm McEwan. http://www.bordergaitherin.musicscotland.com is the website, but for full copies of the A4 poster and 1/3rd A4 leaflet download three Adobe Acrobat PDF files which I've put on my own website for the Gaitherin's benefit: http://www.maxwellplace.demon.co.uk/pandemonium/gaitherinposter.pdf http://www.maxwellplace.demon.co.uk/pandemonium/gaitherinleaflet.pdf http://www.maxwellplace.demon.co.uk/pandemonium/gaitherinleafback.pdf The total size of these is less than 100Kb. The two leaflet files are all you actually need as the front of the leaflet is a mini version of the poster. These two total only 46Kb and can be printed on your inkjet or viewed using Acrobat. Please feel free to copy and print any you like for your own club or friends, or for a number of 'printed' copies, email Liz Marroni - [EMAIL PROTECTED] David Kilpatrick Posted to Scots-L - The Traditional Scottish Music & Culture List - To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
