Taking new music in to the nooks and crannies of Aberdeenshire
See the Framed Against the Sky website for details of all events.
Framed Against the Sky is a collaborative project between Woodend Barn, sound festival and Red Note Ensemble which introduces people to new music in Aberdeenshire and Aberdeen. Local communities will be given the opportunity to help Irish composer Brian Irvine and Scottish poet Billy Letford create a new piece of music which will be premièred at the launch of 2013 sound festival at Woodend Barn this October.
We will be performing at various festivals, shows, and other locations throughout Aberdeenshire and City over the coming months in the lead up to the 2013 sound festival. Brian and Billy will be holding workshops in schools and open workshops during events.
If you’ve taken part in one of these workshops and would like to sing in the final performance on Wednesday 23rd October at Woodend Barn (Banchory), there will be a rehearsal on Sunday 20th October.
