About The North East Scotland Classical Guitar Society
NESCGS is a group of like-minded classical guitar players who have come together to broaden the awareness, understanding and appreciation of the classical guitar in Aberdeenshire and the North East of Scotland.
We have three goals:
-
To promote the enjoyment of and education in classical guitar music, by means of members’ evenings, performances, concerts, courses, workshops in Aberdeenshire
-
To provide concert opportunities for performers, giving priority to local Aberdeenshire performers
-
To broaden the enjoyment of the classical guitar for its members by working with other guitar societies
The society, based in Gordon District, Aberdeenshire, now hold monthly meetings at Queens Cross Church, Aberdeen.
The core activities of the society will be Members Nights where members will be encouraged to perform solo and ensemble pieces, as well as participate in a guitar orchestra. Invited performers and knowledgeable speakers will also feature at some meetings. The society intends to purchase music for the use of its members.
NESCGS aims to attract members of all abilities from Aberdeenshire and across the North East. We encourage players of any ability, young and old, to come to our meetings where they will receive a warm welcome in an encouraging and non-competitive environment.
The Society has a newly-formed committee based in Aberdeenshire comprising:
