HARTLEBURY Castle will be alive to the sound of music at the weekend as it holds a series of workshops.

There will be an instruments workshop for adults and children where music expert Andy Casserley will guide them through several instruments.

For younger visitors there will be an opportunity to make some simple instruments. On Saturday there will be a singing workshop, starting at 2pm, where visitors will be invited to fill the castle's great hall with mediaeval music.

On Sunday the Red Dragon Jazz Band and the Worcester Folk Players will be performing.

Julia Smith, access and learning officer, said: "Both days are guaranteed to provide interest and fun for all the family."
