Comrie White Church, PH6 2LJ
Description
We are delighted to welcome two of Scotland's most outstanding traditional musicians to Comrie. This concert will be an unforgettable event when two Titans of the Scottish music scene meet and bring their collective genius together.
Duncan Chisholm is one of Scotland’s most recognised and accomplished fiddle players and composers. Duncan’s music contains the rarest of chemistries, a glorious combination of invention, tenderness and passion. He creates music that requires no introductions or programme notes to carry you on its journey, sumptuously layered and awash with dazzling colours, textures and rhythms. The sound may be traditional but this is 21st Century traditional music which is sophisticated, exhilarating and meltingly beautiful.
“The indisputable eminent fiddle composer of his generation.” Penguin Eggs
Hamish Napier is a Scottish folk multi-instrumentalist, educator and composer inspired by the heritage and nature of his native landscape. His music is beautifully constructed, evocative and distinctive. Hamish always strives for a balance between tradition and innovation, celebrating and respecting Scotland’s rich musical heritage while transcending boundaries, with jazz, electronic and classical techniques and has an incredible gift of painting pictures with sound.
“There’s stunning craft to Hamish’s music making” Robert MacFarlane
