Savourna Stevenson and Alyth McCormack, harp and song

‘Savourna Stevenson’s harp music spins sheer magic’, (The Scotsman) and as a composer and songwriter she finds her perfect collaborator in the acclaimed Scottish singer, Alyth McCormack. Together they share a passion for storytelling in music. Mature performers: Savourna’s awesome virtuosic harp playing coupled with Alyth’s equisite and versatile voice. Savourna is one of the most exciting virtuosos on the harp today. Her nine Cd’s to date include stunning collaborations with acclaimed artists including: Eddi Reader, June Tabor, Danny Thompson and Davy Spillane. Her latest CD ‘Persian Knight Celtic Dawn’ - a stunning fusion of middle eastern and celtic influences in music and words - has sparked this new collaboration with Alyth . Alyth McCormack, a voice described as having ‘spun glass fragility belying a sinewy strength’. She loves singing and lets you know that without telling you. You can hear it in her voice. A brilliant new duo, who move freely between traditional and contemporary songs with ‘amusing on- stage cheeky banter’ (Scotsman).
