The second annual Summer Sizzle piping and drumming event is scheduled for Saturday, September 25 in Dallas (exact site to be announced soon). Okay, that date is technically in the fall, but it will still feel like summer in the Southwest!
Building on last year’s success, we’ll offer competitions for solo piping and drumming, and for small ensembles (pipes and pipes/drums). In addition, pipe and drum workshops will be offered, and individual lessons with the judges are available for the evening of Friday, Sep. 24.
An ‘open mike’ ceilidh will be held Saturday evening following the day’s events. Soloists and groups are invited to play their favorite tunes, on any instrument of their choice.
Judges will be Jimmy Bell and Chris Apps, for pipes, and Jon Quigg for drums.
Site details and registration forms will be posted in the next few days, but mark your calendars now; and let us know if you have questions.
Hope to see you there!
