The HRGB Scotland Autumn rally today was absolutely fantastic! ❤️
Great venue, lovely music, great cakes, novice & experienced players, old & new friends and three patient conductors! The perfect combo!
Thank you so much to Inverness HR who hosted us, Martin & Sandra who visited us from South of the border and to all the teams who travelled from the north, south and east of Scotland to join the rally today, despite the stormy weather! A wee bit of wind and rain didn’t stop us😁
We look forward to playing with you all again at the Spring Rally in Edinburgh next year!❤️🎵🎶🔔🎵🎶

Take a look at this wonderful video of Sìdh C Art’s amazing “Carnival of Plants” which took place at Forse Of Nature in May.
You’ll meet Han and hear Katrina Gordon - composer talking about writing “Han’s Tree of Life” for flute, handbells and plant, featuring BJ and the Caithness Handbell Ringers!
You might also spot Pentland Brass Band, who enjoyed playing tunes in the gorgeous garden, and will hear from many of the very creative people who live, work and play in Caithness.
Thank you Cally, for putting the whole weekend together as the culmination of an amazing project across health, the arts and the environment! 👏👏👏👏

Some of the orchestral players at The Caithness Orchestra "Come & Play Tchaik 6" weekend in Thurso opted to join a beginner handbell ringing workshop run by Katrina this afternoon. All were complete bell novices but about 30minutes after picking up their first bell this is how they sounded! We are very impressed!❤️🎵🎶🔔🎶👏👏👏
This is Katrina Gordon - composer's arrangement of "Bound for South Australia"🇦🇺
Thank you Suzanne Masden for the creative inspiration from last week's International Handbell Symposium in Aberdeen.❤️🇦🇺🎶
