Music on the Isles - August 2024
"Since 1999 we have annually been holding a chamber music and orchestral course for young musicians between the ages of 8 and 20 on Berneray. It has proven very successful both for pupils and teachers alike, and for many young participants has encouraged them to study music and gain positions in professional orchestras.
"It has been our reward to have hosted so many enthusiastic listeners at the final concerts each year and we look forward to welcoming old and new acquaintances at this Summer’s musical highlights. The programme includes exciting works for varied ensembles by Corelli, J.S.Bach, Haydn, Dvořák, Grieg, Moszkowski and others. Performing are 16 dedicated young instrumentalists, nearly all of whom have enjoyed happy experiences on Berneray and greatly look forward to a further fortnight of music-making in such inspiring surroundings.
"The concerts take place on Friday 30th and Saturday 31st August, 2024 both in the Community Hall Berneray at 7.30 pm.
"Reservations can be made by telephone 01876 540338 as of Friday 16th August.
"We would like to take the opportunity of thanking all our faithful supporters not only on the Isle of Berneray but also from further afield - Harris, North and South Uist, Benbecula, Grimsay and even from the Scottish mainland."
Greetings from this year’s team:
Caroline Bergius - Harpsichord
Ann Schneidt - Viola
Lorenzo Giannotti - Violin
Wolfgang Bergius - Cello
Thomas Gieron - Cello
Hanna Gieron - Cello
