Warddkes Primary pupils from P4 to P7 received an eight week Introduction to Scottish Music input delivered by musician Will Marshall.\u00a0 This project was funded by Youth Music Initiative.<\/p>\n

The main outcome for this project was for the pupils to increase their awareness of Scottish music and its culture across Scotland, its influence across the UK and indeed, the world.<\/p>\n

The project introduced various Scottish instruments to the pupils and Will demonstrated each one playing different genres of Scottish music.\u00a0 They children also had opportunities to engage with the instruments themselves by playing a small accordion, bagpipes and small fiddle.<\/p>\n

They learned about the four main Scottish rhythms and chords and pupils learned Scottish and Gaelic songs and words and numbers and the Virginia Reel ceilidh dance.<\/p>\n
