We’re thrilled to invite you to another fantastic BDRS Double Reed Day, this time in partnership with the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (RCS), Glasgow!
This exciting event will feature a stellar lineup of world-class tutors and performers from the RCS, offering a day packed with inspiring sessions, performances, and opportunities to dive into the world of double reed instruments.
