Wind Farm Aberdeen
Wind Farm is a weekend of music making for amateur musicians as part of a wind orchestra. The wind orchestra offers more opportunity for wind, brass and percussion players to get involved compared to an orchestral weekend. You will spend the Saturday and Sunday rehearsing with a professional conductor, John Grant, and SCO musicians will be on hand for sectional coaching and offering hints n’ tips! Wind Farm ends with an opportunity to show off all your hard work to friends and family with an informal performance.
Once you have booked your place, we also offer the chance to buy reduced price tickets for a concert linked to the weekend.
