<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">I am a Scotsman whose Great Grandfather played the Fiddle and whose Grandad was a Piper who also played the Fiddle, so I'm happy to say that Traditional Music is in my blood.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">I have been playing the traditional music of Ireland and Scotland now for over forty years and in 1995 I launched my own music school, while living in Ballintoy, Co. Antrim and named it the <b>Jim McGill School of Traditional Music</b>, in honour of the Late Jim McGill,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">a local man who did so much to encourage local youngsters to play music.</span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(102 , 0 , 0); font-family: "arial"; font-size: 13px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(102 , 0 , 0); font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">As a Scot, living in North Antrim, I am in the unique position of having a huge amount of experience in both Irish and Scottish music. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(102 , 0 , 0); font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">As a former member of <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://comhaltas.ie/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51 , 51 , 255);">Comhaltas</span></a></span>, I entered the annual national music competitions and gained a 2nd prize medal at the All Ireland Fleadh.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(102 , 0 , 0); font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">I was also awarded my <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://comhaltas.ie/education/ttct_exam/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51 , 51 , 255);">T T C T</span></a></span>, <b>Traditional Music Teaching Diploma</b> with Comhlatas. <a href="http://comhaltas.ie/education/ttct_exam/" style="font-size: 13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51 , 51 , 255);"></span></a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(102 , 0 , 0); font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">As a former member of the <b>Ulster-Scots Folk Orchestra</b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"> </span>I toured throughout Ulster and Ireland promoting the Scottish music of Northern Ireland. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">Believing wholeheartedly in the cross community benefits of children learning to share and enjoy traditional music I, with my wife Sabine who is a musician too, offer a musical presentation entitled </span><a href="http://musicalinstrumenthistoryforschools.blogspot.com/" style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51 , 51 , 255);">Lyre to Laptop</span></span></a><span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">, to schools which demonstrates the history and development of all the traditional instruments of Ulster. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">Using over 50 different musical instruments we give Musical Presentations in authentic period costume, more usually in a cross community context to a mixed group of children from Maintained and Controlled schools.</span><span style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">Over the past few years, more than thirty schools have made use of this service. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">For a number of years I wrote a weekly column for the Ballymoney Times, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.ballymoneytimes.co.uk/what-s-on/arts-culture/traditional-notes-by-dick-glasgow-1-1815526">Traditional Notes</a></span></span><span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">, which promoted all manner of traditional aspects of both Irish and Ulster-Scots culture.</span><span style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">I</span><span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #660000;"> also created and organised the </span><b><u><a href="https://www.cimbalom.org/2004/11/new-causeway-dulcimer-festival-for-co-antrim-n-ireland-2005/"><span style="color: blue;">Causeway Dulcimer Festival</span></a></u></b><span style="color: #660000;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">in 2005, which I put on in Bushmills, Co Antrim, and which featured the </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial"; font-weight: bold; white-space: pre-wrap;">Hammered Dulcimer</span><span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">an old instrument</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial"; font-weight: bold; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">Traditional to the Glens of Antrim<b>.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">The festival also promoted all the traditional music and instruments of Ulster.</span><br />

<span style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">My methods don't involve the dreaded 'Ear Test' and the usual practice of singling out children who the teacher might feel are musical, but rather and when possible, I prefer to offer musical tuition to anyone who is interested, that way no child feels rejected, or worse, feels that they are not musical. </span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">I don't demand that children be musically gifted, I just like them to be interested, keen and enthusiastic, and to that end, I do my best to make their weekly lesson fun, that way I find they look forward to it, and are more likely to practice, and stick at it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">I don't put pressure on my students to sit tests or exams, I reckon they have enough of those in school already, so the only incentive I use is the opportunity to play in front of their own class, or the whole school, usually at the end of term, with informal concerts. The thought of playing in front of their peers usually brings about the necessary levels of practise to see real improvement, but in a fun way.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">As well as providing individual tuition, in small groups, for those wishing to learn to play <b>Fiddle</b>, <b>Tin Whistle</b> or <b>Bodhran</b> I also take whole classes for Tin Whistle tuition, from P4 upwards. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">I find the <b>Tin Whistle</b> to be the ideal instrument to learn, for those taking their first steps into the wonderful world of Traditional Music. As well as being cheap, it is also one of the easiest instruments to learn to play, so students very quickly learn to play a few simple tunes, in fact they can play tunes from the very first lesson.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "arial";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000;"><br /></span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">Incidentally, for the local musicians in Ulster, traditional music has always been a mix of both Scottish and Irish Tunes, with each sharing tunes from the other's tradition, so it seems very natural for me to be giving children an appreciation of both musical traditions.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">The cross community aspect of my work is very important to me and I teach daily, on a number of instruments, in local Primary Schools of all denominations. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000; font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">I also provide Traditional Music Tuition in the evenings for adults.</span><br />
