Leading Scots fiddle exponent, Alastair Savage returns to the beautiful setting of the Canongate Kirk with his unique celebration of the cherished Scots fiddle tradition. Alongside him a stellar cast of the country's finest musicians, including Euan Drysdale (guitar/piano), Iain Crawford (double bass), Bronte Hudnott (flute, whistle) and Chris Gibb (border pipes). Toe-tapping strathspeys and reels combine with soulful laments, ancient and modern, for a breathtaking journey of sound. An unmissable experience of Scottish culture. 'A must for aficionados' (Herald). 'Panache, grace and affection' (Scotsman). 'Master of the instrument' (Threeweeks).
