Music by the Saltire Band – Mary and Duncan McDonald, Jason Morris, Heather Elder
The music will tell you what to do: A Workshop for dancers and interested musicians
You are invited to a workshop with Lynne Scott, the RSCDS NZ Branch Music Adviser. Lynne will demonstrate how music for Scottish Country Dancing is organised to match the dances, and discuss what to listen for to inform your dancing. No question is too silly!
Musicians will have the opportunity to try a dance set under Lynne’s expert tuition. A piano is available.
Afternoon tea provided.
Please call Lynne to confirm your attendance: 04 5650164

Professor Rod Downey
Hawke’s Bay Branch Royal Society Te Apārangi
There are those who would argue that mathematics and Scottish Country Dancing are some of the pinnacles of human achievement. Rod works in mathematics and specifically algorithmics and the theory of computation.
Rod is a teacher and devisor of Scottish country dances. He will try to explain how the cognitive processes in his kind of mathematics and dancing resemble one another and give an insight into a small part of modern mathematics and an interesting and fun dance form.
CANCELLED due to Covid-19 Level 2 restrictions
