| Gaita Medieval Music | Gaita are dedicated to providing spirited medieval music for all types of events and locations in stylish medieval dress, and on a wide variety of instruments for all occasions - louder instruments like bagpipes, shawms and drums; or softer kinds like harps, fiddles and lutes. The music ranges from 13th to 15th C. and from Scotland, France, Italy and Spain and can include everything from loud and lively dances to stately ceremonial music to gentle melodies for quieter times. We are very experienced in playing in any situation and can tailor the music from our extensive repertoire. We also conduct workshops in 15th C dance and dance music.
