Everyone is a storyteller - we've all answered the question 'how was your day' with a story. In this workshop we will learn how to tell two folk tales, one Norwegian and one Scottish. Be ready to experiment with making harp sounds and to learn a tune or two that can be played as part of the stories.  Everyone of all levels is welcome. The workshop includes a workbook for stories, harp sounds, and the tunes. The stories are suitable for all experience levels and all tunes arranged for beginner - intermediate - advanced levels.

A private 15 minute session will be available to each participant within four weeks of the class.
