Alastair Savage: Scots Fiddle Old and New

This year, celebrating his 50th birthday, one of Scotland's leading fiddle exponents presents an extra-special journey of classic folk music accompanied by his closest collaborators from the past two decades, Euan Drysdale (guitar/piano) and Iain Crawford (double bass). With six albums released, the extensive back catalogue includes vintage melodies by Niel Gow, James Scott Skinner and William Marshall, alongside Alastair's own unique compositions. An undoubted festival highlight not to be missed. 'A must for aficionados' (Herald). 'Master of the instrument' (ThreeWeeks). 'Panache, grace and affection' (Scotsman). 'Spectacular in simplicity, scope and delivery' (Folkwords.com).
