A harp class at the Wighton Centre, Dundee

The ancient Gaelic harp traditions of Ireland and Scotland are extensive and complex. There is a lot of lore and tradition. I enjoy teaching all aspects of the tradition, not just playing techniques but also theoretical and aesthetic principles, or history and anecdotes. Whether you wish to play, or just to listen and find out more about the tradition, then as long as you are serious and dedicated I would be happy to hear from you.
