THE EPIC PRESENTS - What is it?
Making noise in epic proportions, THE EPIC PRESENTS is an annual event where we host massive participatory music making. Each event has a theme and will invite incredible professional musicians from Glasgow, our UNESCO City of Music, to lead us in a participatory performance of epic scale. Part of Music in the University, THE EPIC PRESENTS will always be free for participation.
