About this Event
Join us for the second Distil Meet-Up at the Scottish Music Centre, Glasgow, focusing on improvisation with Professor Raymond MacDonald.
Raymond is a founder member of the Glasgow Improvisers Orchestra, a large improvising ensemble of around 20 musicians from diverse artistic backgrounds ranging from free improvisation, jazz, classical, folk, pop, and experimental musics to performance art.
This session is designed for both learning and informal discussion, where you can explore new approaches to improvisation and connect with fellow musicians. Perfect for Distil alumni and musicians interested in expanding their improvisational practice.
Tea and coffee provided. Places are limited to ensure an intimate, focused environment.
For over twenty years, Hands Up for Trad's Distil project has been pioneering creative development for traditional musicians across Scotland. Through residential workshops, mentoring, and collaboration with leading ensembles like Mr McFall's Chamber, Distil has empowered hundreds of musicians to develop compositional confidence and improvisational skills, creating new works that bridge traditional and contemporary music.
We're delighted to introduce a new chapter in the Distil story: the Distil Meet-Up Series. These intimate mini-workshops will take place at the Scottish Music Centre in Glasgow, offering an opportunity for both Distil alumni and musicians interested in composition and improvisation to learn from leading practitioners in the field.
