School Workshop!

The final day of Music Coll is nearly at an end and will be reported fully very soon but we wanted to put up a little something about the visit of the Coll Primary School last Thursday afternoon.

We received a visit from most of the children at Ainagour Primary School on Thursday and they were treated to a recital/workshop from the Aquilon Ensemble. We first spied the snake of youngsters wandering down the brae from Carnan Road as we were finishing our lunch. Then they raced up the path to An Cridhe!


They are lucky enough to receive some very good music tuition on the Island but we were please to offer them a wee introduction to some wind instruments. They had a full tour of the five quintet instruments and sat rapt as the Aquilon performed various pieces. Many questions and demonstrations later, with hose pipe included and some budding conductors and a lot of leaping around to finish, off back to school they went.

You will not find a much more enthusiastic, responsive and well behaved bunch of youngsters anywhere!
