Welcome

A federation of players of plucked-stringed intruments

Our organisation

Our organisation has been in existence for almost 100 years. We have members across the UK and a few in Europe and America too. Some members belong to local orchestras. We publish a quarterly newsletter, run a summer school every year, and a festival every two years. Our next Festival is planned for Spring 2024. We are always keen to have new members and to hear about activities from players of our instruments so please visit the Members page for information about how to join us.
