Shunpike Social Club - AUTUMN COURSE 2025
Event description
The Shunpike Social Club Autumn course is here and we can't wait!
This is a fantastic opportunity to play in a genuinely creative and vibrant ensemble, directed by specialist music educators who provide challenge and reward for players at all stages of their musical journey. There's no other group like it in Edinburgh!
Monday nights from 3rd Nov to 8th Dec (6 weeks), at Edinburgh College Milton Campus.
As ever, we welcome brass/reeds/guitars of all abilities (must have own instrument) and will provide samba-style percussion instruments for drummers of all abilities.
Band Leaders Marcus Britton and Sam Ward-Hardy will continue to build the confidence and develop the skills of all players, with another great course which will include:
learning new arrangements as a group
working on ORIGINAL new music devised by members of Shunpike Social Club
encouraging development of improvising skills
We'll also continue to use movement, singing, rhythm exercises and other elements of community music practice to enhance the street band experience beyond 'just playing music'.
There's no better way to spend a Monday evening :)
And please spread the word - we love growing our community of Shunpike players!
