Speelervaring of muziekkennis is niet vereist, alleen wat enthousiasme en durf. We hebben geen Schotse of Ierse doedelzakken bij ons, maar de draailieren en doedelzakken zoals deze traditioneel bespeeld worden in bijvoorbeeld Frankrijk, België of Nederland. Misschien herken je ze wel van de schilderijen van de Oude Meesters zoals Jeroen Bosch of Pieter Breughel" De trekharmonica’s die we bij ons hebben zijn de diatonische accordeons die je ziet in bijvoorbeeld muziekgroepen als Rapalje, Yann Tiersen of in veel balfolkgroepen. • https://castlefest.nl/nl/line-up/instrument-try-out-sessions • http://draailier-doedelzak.nl/ ******* ENGLISH ******** Have you always been curious about bagpipe, hurdy-gurdy, diatonic accordion or nyckelharpa playing and how these instruments work? Then come and visit us at the Koetshuis at Castlefest We'll have ongoing sessions at the following hours: - Friday 10.00 to 21.00 - Saturday 10.00 to 21.00 - Sunday 10.00 to 21.00 Under the guidance of experienced bagpipe/hurdy-gurdy/ accordion/ nyckelharpa musicians and the Dutch hurdy-gurdy&bagpipe foundation you can try these instruments. No previous knowledge is required, we only ask for a bit of enthusiasm and courage. Instruments are of course available. The Dutch Hurdy-gurdy & Bagpipes Foundation (Stichting Draailier En Doedelzak) is an organisation that focuses on hurdy-gurdies and bagpipes of the western European continent. Their activities include organising courses for advanced players and beginners. Beginners can even rent instruments from the foundation. For the record: We won't be playing the Scottish or Irish pipes, but the gurdies and pipes which are traditionally played in France, Belgium or in the Netherlands. Maybe you know them from paintings of Jeroen Bosch or Pieter Breughel?" The accordions we have with us, are the diatonic accordions which are used in the music of Rapalje, Yann Tiersen or in many Balfolkbands • https://castlefest.nl/en/line-up/instrument-try-out-sessions • http://draailier-doedelzak.nl/ - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/lisse/try-a-hurdygurdy-bagpipe-accordion-or-nyckelharpa-at-castlefest/200030103295434 - **Event Categories**: workshops, music, entertainment - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 60 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Lisse - **state**: ZH - **country**: Netherlands - **location**: Castlefest - **lat**: 52.26776 - **long**: 4.54014 - **full address**: Castlefest, Keukenhof 1, 2161 AN Lisse, Nederland, Lisse, Netherlands ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Try a hurdygurdy, bagpipe, accordion or nyckelharpa - at Castlefest - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/4cd3b74e458df72899699869ee3e1c07c795b8a3f4245c6b4165b6e2a6cc531d-rimg-w1200-h983-dc161918-gmir?v=1784990606 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Try a hurdygurdy, bagpipe, accordion or nyckelharpa - at Castlefest being held? - **A:** Try a hurdygurdy, bagpipe, accordion or nyckelharpa - at Castlefest takes place on Fri, 31 Jul, 2026 at 10:00 am to Sun, 02 Aug, 2026 at 06:00 pm at Castlefest, Keukenhof 1, 2161 AN Lisse, Nederland, Lisse, Netherlands. - **Q**: Who is organizing Try a hurdygurdy, bagpipe, accordion or nyckelharpa - at Castlefest? - **A:** Try a hurdygurdy, bagpipe, accordion or nyckelharpa - at Castlefest is organized by Stichting Draailier En Doedelzak. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
