Dating back to circa 1940, the Dunkeld & District Strathspey & Reel Society have continued to perform at many local events throughout Perthshire for the last 60+ years. Performing Traditional Scottish Music, our main aim is to contribute to the local entertainment calendar, while helping local groups and organisations to enjoy our music while raising funds for their local community activities. We have players at all standards and while fiddles dominate the group, we always require flautists, accordionists, drummers and keyboard players. Under the guidance of Mr Gordon Walker the group continues to flourish.

Our first recording, The Millenium Concert, is available on CD and you can listen to a selection of tracks on our discography page.

We meet at the Royal School of Dunkeld every Monday evening, at 7:30pm, throughout Autumn, Winter and Spring. We recently started a Beginners Group under the guidance of our First Violinist, Mr Neil Gonnella. The session starts at 7:00pm.

Whether you simply want to find out more information about our group, or you wish to join us and are unsure of the expected standards, booking the group for your next fund raising event, or even where our next concerts are to be held, you will find a contact on our contacts page.

We are keen to promote our concerts and are keen to accept new members, who wish to play and learn Traditional Scottish Music, whatever your age, whatever your ability.

You may even wish to listen to one of our PRACTICE SESSIONS on MONDAY'S at 7:30PM at the Royal School of Dunkeld. All Welcome........
