Celtic Christmas Strings
There's something magical about harps, and particularly at Christmas, though Máire & Chris's alchemy on harp & guitar creates a very special magic at all times. Individually famed for originality and virtuosity, together they have created one of the most distinctive voices in modern acoustic music and brought their unique musical vision to venues large and small in twenty-two countries on five continents. Their many recordings express both a deep commitment to tradition and an eternally playful & adventurous spirit.
Their new Christmas show features a breathtaking blend of traditional Irish music, swing jazz & bluegrass, plus festive favourites given a fresh voice with arrangements that are intricate, inventive, moving and beautiful, and performed in their characteristically heart-warming style - a spellbinding treat for mid-winter.
"Both are in the virtuoso class" - The Guardian
"Brilliant, innovative harping and guitar-playing of astonishing virtuosity and versatility" - **** Songlines
