Young Traditional Musicians of the Year in Concert
The Young Trad Tour 2010 is a showcase for the cream of the new generation of Scottish musicians and as well as being highly talented solo performers, the sound they create as a band is energetic, dynamic and full of promise for the tradition they carry. There’s a real powerhouse of Scottish fiddling in this band led by this year’s winner Daniel Thorpe, who, along with last year’s winner, Ruairidh MacMillan create an unforgettable twin fiddle sound. Beautiful Gaelic airs and clarsach tunes from Mairi Chaimbeul from Skye and Hannah Phillips from Glasgow. From the Irish tradition comes Paddy Callaghan on accordion and harp (Glasgow) And not forgetting the big sound of the Highland pipes played in his inimitable style by Lorne MacDougall from Argyll joined this year by fellow piper, Kyle Warren from Helensburgh.Date: 29/09/10
