The TMSA was founded in 1966 to promote, present and preserve the traditional music and song of Scotland. Encouraging both widespread participation as well as individual artistic excellence, it operates at a grassroots level through a network of local branches promoting broad engagement through 40-50 festivals, concerts, workshops & other events each year, often in partnership with other organisations. The National Office (in Edinburgh) runs Scotland wide projects such as: • The annual TMSA Event Calendar listing many of the traditional music festivals, events & ongoing activity taking place each year, distributed in print and digital versions with further events and activity highlighted on the TMSA website and social media channels. • the TMSA Young Trad Tour – involving the finalists & winners from the BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician of the Year Award • Sessions Programme eg ‘Grow Your Own Music Session’ aimed at supporting young people to develop local sessions.
