Workshop on popular 18th-century

Irish and Scottish music

In the footsteps of the bards

The Curious Bards

15 - 18 August 2026

Repertoire

Workshop repertoire will be based on The Curious Bards’ programme « Indiscretion », which explores Irish and Scottish 18th-century music through an array of ballads and dances (reels, jigs, hornpipes, slip jigs, strathspeys).

This programme will be performed by The Curious Bards in the Académie Bach’s Festival, on Monday 17 August.

No musical scores will be handed out, because one of the goals of the workshop is to work within the tradition of learning through oral transmission. However, participants will have the opportunity to consult period scores during the workshop.
