Glorious Music in an Idylic, Rural Setting!

Jenna with members of the Berwickshire High School Folk Band

We are getting used to superb musical concerts arranged for us by Heather and Harris — how fortunate we are to have them as our next door neighbours! On Sunday evening (27th. May) Harris brought his friend, Jenna Reid, to play for us. Jenna is a celebrated Shetland fiddler — and how we were entertained, both by Jenna herself and by members of the Berwickshire High School Folk Band led by Harris on his electric piano.

We listened to music from Perthshire, Dundee and from Newcastle but, of course, most of the music came from Shetland and it was all absolutely wonderful.

The church was extremely well-filled with many local folk and also many who had travelled a distance especially to hear Jenna. Refreshments were served at the interval by members of the congregation who had really gone to town. We ate and drank extremely well.

It was a splendid evening and already we are looking forward to the next in the series which is planned for September.
