Looking forward to weekend full of music? Playing, singing or dancing the night away... This will be possible during the annual spring weekend of Stichting Draailier
and Doedelzak (the Dutch Hurdy-Gurdy and Bagpipes Foundation) in the beautifull woods of Sint-Michielsgestel (next to the city of Den Bosch). During this weekend there will be hurdy-gurdy,
bagpipe and other music courses for the beginner and the advanced player. During the day the courses will be held. In the evening
