Embark on a musical adventure like no other as we invite you to join us for an immersive family workshop, centred around the Wooden One-octave Organ For Young Technologists (WOOFYT). Led by the Cathedral’s very own Judith Lyons, this workshop promises an engaging and interactive experience for music enthusiasts of all ages.

Prepare to be amazed as Judith demonstrates the techniques of music-making on a single instrument with the potential for up to 20 players simultaneously. Young music lovers will have the unique opportunity to explore the fascinating world of creating and controlling airflow and pressure, discovering how pumps and valves operate in instruments such as panpipes, organs, and bagpipes. Through this hands-on experience, participants will develop teamwork, teaching skills, and leadership abilities, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation for the art of music.

This workshop is suitable for children aged 9 and above, as well as older children and adults, ensuring an inclusive and enriching experience for all. Children must be accompanied by an adult to join in the excitement. Tickets for this extraordinary workshop are free of charge, but advance booking is essential to secure your spot.

Don’t miss this extraordinary opportunity to explore the world of music-making and discover the wonders of the WOOFYT alongside the talented Judith Lyons. Reserve your ticket today and be part of a memorable workshop that will ignite your musical curiosity, inspire creativity, and foster a deeper appreciation for the power of music.
