Announcement
We are sad to announce that our Conductor and Musical Director, Yla Steven BEM, sadly passed away on the 13th June. She will be greatly missed by the EHRSS and by the Scottish Fiddle Music community as a whole.
Upcoming Events
We can provide smaller groups to play at a reception, ceilidh, or other similar event. Please get in touch if you would like to hire us for an event.
Who are we?
The Society was founded in 1881 - the first of any such group dedicated to traditional Scottish fiddle music. Our aim is to continue the tradition of playing fiddle music and we perform several concerts each year, including our annual concert in the Queens Hall. Our repertoire is varied from slow airs, waltzes, pipe and fiddle marches to faster reels and jigs. The strathspey, unique to Scotland, is a cornerstone to the music we perform. Members range in age from mid teens to 80+.
Join Us!
Do you play the Fiddle, Cello, or Bass? We're a relaxed, friendly group who play on Monday nights 19:30-21:30 during school term time, with a tea break in the middle. There's plenty opportunity for playing in concerts, ceilidhs, and other performances, and we'd love to welcome new members! Feel free to email ehrss.secretary@gmail.com or come along and meet us at Bainfield Bowling Club (Google Maps)
