The Cornwall Harp & Gurdy Festival returns to Falmouth for the weekend with a programme filled with live performances and events to explore and celebrate these two distinctive instruments.
Bringing together local and national acts, alongside taster sessions and the opportunity to hear their influence on all types of music, this Festival for all ages will mean you will never view harps and hurdy-gurdies the same way again!
You can experience and take part in beginner harp workshops, a hurdy-gurdy ceilidh, Stone Club DJ set, acclaimed harp player Anna McLuckie and more.
Supported by Arts Council England and Falmouth Town Council
A wonderful, wandering into the imagination with harp music. Learn about the magical, healing histories of celtic harp music and experience a calming soundscape journey. A semi-interactive workshop that will leave you feeling inspired and unwound. During parts of this workshop you will be invited to sit on the ground, lie or move around. This is not essential to the experience and is still accessible to those who are unable to do this. Bring comfortable clothes and a blanket or mat (i.e yoga mat) if you have one.
