Bath Session December 2018, with visitors from Boldwood, AndroSisters, Dromadaire, and Chippenham pipe trio, plus Jake leading these tunes. Talent!!!
Sansonette danced as an Andro…. and and a Scottish: at the Bristol Session
We play and dance to traditional or new French and Breton tunes: in couples, or in lines without partners. In Bath we play in the bar, and in Bristol we have an upstairs room to ourselves, with plenty of room for dancing. So Bristol is best for dancers. We usually have bagpipes , hurdy-gurdy; accordions, melodeons, and concertina; fiddles and whistles. CLICK HERE TO SEE OUR VIDEOS
This session is more than 20 years old, originally started in Bristol by Andy Letcher. For our dancing in the Bristol streets see videos here and see Mike Finn’s fine photos here
