Come and celebrate the Auld Alliance between France and Scotland in the heart of Edinburgh. This is a unique event, organised by the Institut Francais Ecosse and Scots Music Group, to honour the visit of Les Etournias musicians and dancers from La Rochelle in France.
Expert callers from both countries explain the dances, making it a great opportunity to learn new dances and make new friends.
SMG’s Ceilidh Caleerie Dance Band are playing, as is SMG tutor Fin Moore who will play his smallpipes during the break – which may encourage some stepdancers to take to the floor!
Date: Monday 17th June from 8-11 pm (box office opens at 7.30pm)
Venue: Institut Francais Ecosse, West Parliament Square, Edinburgh EH1 1RF
Tickets: £10 /£8 concession here
CEILIDH CALEERIE DANCE BAND grew out of the Scots Music Group ‘Playing for Dancing’ class and now plays regularly for community and charity ceilidhs around Edinburgh. The Band’s policy is to play at events for good causes which couldn’t otherwise hold a ceilidh. The band is a group of enthusiastic traditional Scottish music players who enjoy playing music for dancing.
L’association LES ETOURNIAS compte plus de 40 ans d’existence et le siège se situe près de LA ROCHELLE en Charente Maritime (FRANCE) .
Elle est composée de danseurs et de musiciens.
La musique jouée par l’orchestre des ETOURNIAS : LES TOQUÉS DU TEMPO reflète la richesse et la variété du répertoire traditionnel français et ce sont sur des airs locaux, nationaux (ou parfois internationaux) qu’ils se produisent dans les bals folks.
Le voyage en Ecosse déplace 28 personnes, musiciens et danseurs (ou les deux). Les TOQUÉS DU TEMPOS seront au nombre de 15 (accordéons diatoniques, violons, guitares, saxo, flûtes) et sont accompagnés de danseur(ses) ainsi que de leur enseignante de danses. www.lesetournias.fr
