Come to a recreation of a French salon with baroque music and readings from the art world's gossip columns at the @metmuseum on May 5th 2023 at 4pm! Expect live music and salacious French 18th century anecdotes with the Vanderlyn Panorama as a backdrop...

Friends and bagpipe lovers, if you are curious about some of the work I have been up to this year at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, feel free to come to my ONLINE presentation on 5th May at 1pm. Image credit: Wellcome collection

Did you know the most complex bagpipe ever invented is the sordellina? It was created in the early 17th century in Italy and played by gentlemen amateur musicians. Dive deeper and learn more as Cassandre explores hidden bagpipes of The Met collection.metmuseum.org/perspectives/a…

It's such a privilege to be able to share some if the work I do at the @metmuseum this year... @UniLincolnArts @UniLincolnPEARL @FRUK @CreativeScots @UNESCO @Alliancefranf

Happy International Bagpipe Day everyone! There is lots happening across the world today! How are YOU celebrating? 📸 Heather Beltz #InternationalBagpipeDay

Sound the bagpipes! On this International Bagpipes Day, Bibliolore features a piece by @CassandreBalbar focused on how illustrations of the instrument provide insights into the collecting world of the late 19th century. #bagpipes #organology @metmuseum bibliolore.org/2023/03/10/fiv…

It's such a pleasure and honour to be at @snuofficial this week. I have met wonderful students in workshops and lectures, as well as the incredible star-studded staff: professors Heo Yoon-jeong, Noh Eunah and Yi Ji-young. Thanks to Professor Anna Yates for inviting me.

Today was the first orientation day for the @metmuseum fellow programme. I feel very fortunate to be in New York for this amazing adventure. I have a year to study their bagpipe collection... my version of heaven! @UniLincolnPEARL @unilincoln @UniLincolnMusic @BagpipeSociety

#ictm2022 #lisboa.... Ethnomusicologists have the BEST conferences and professional activities, in my view @CassandreBalbar

The concert is tonight, at 9:30pm in Ses Voltes, Palma. We are opening the festival Cançons de la Mediterrània. If you're around, come and listen!

For the last 9 days, I've had the privilege of leading Mallorca's first music residency at Fundació ACA organised by @PalmaCultura. We've created some great music bringing together music and musicians from the worlds of folk, classical and electronic music.

The excellent @theedwellman wins the prize for best @UniLincolnMusic team ‘meeting’ location… lovely evening with colleagues @mimi_oneill @CassandreBalbar @DocRobDean @proudsongster @theedwellman and Steve. We even got to have a go at driving… Grand.

Beautiful evening last night at the #GuildSessions in Lincoln, with Lincolnshire musicians Mossy Christian and Nicholas Konradson. Thank you to @slhillmanphoto for the beautiful shots and to @AcousticNations for filming.

It’s out!!!
