Alasdair Fraser and Natalie Haas

Alasdair Fraser is recognized throughout the world as one of the finest fiddle players Scotland has ever produced. His name is synonymous with the vibrant cultural renaissance which is transforming the Scottish musical scene. The Skye Festival was an indirect result of Alasdair's early short courses at the College almost 20 years ago. His playing partner is Natalie Haas who can make her cello sound like the drone of a hurdy-gurdy, the jangle of a guitar, or the thump of a string bass, and who can carry the tune of fast jigs and reels as well. Guests tonight include Patsy Reid, fiddle; Louise MacKenzie, fiddle, and Frank McConnell, stepdancer Tonight's young musician is Murdo MacRae from Nostie on clarsach.
