TRADITIONAL music workshops are on the up, according to Fèisean nan Gàidheal.
The organisation’s annual report, unveiled last week, showed that it engaged with at least 71,000 people in 2016-17. According to a survey conducted by the Traditional Music Forum, the work of the Fèisean now accounts for a third of all traditional music tuition for young people across Scotland.
Fèisean nan Gàidheal chairman Duncan MacQuarrie MBE said: ‘This report demonstrates that our year-round programme, agreed with Creative Scotland, HIE and Bòrd na Gàidhlig, was successfully delivered through an impressive body of work during the period.
