Court And Country

Scottish Ensemble: Court and Country with Chris Stout, fiddle, and Catriona McKay, Scottish harp

Plus a mini folk session from Chris Stout, Catriona McKay and Scottish Ensemble
What do Baroque music and folk music have in common? Your feet.

Written centuries apart, each piece on this programme is united by an irresistible and inescapably human rhythmic drive, whether in Bach’s heavenly streams of endless notes, the unrelenting gusto of Bartók’s army of strings, or the rugged, haunting flicks and twists of Sally Beamish’s treacherous ocean in her concerto for fiddle and Scottish harp.

Whether dancing in Bach’s court, toiling in Bartók’s fields, or sailing across Beamish’s seas, let us take you on a toe-tapping adventure through rhythm, melody and time.

Programme
J.S. Bach - Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 with second movement by Sally Beamish
Sally Beamish - Seavaigers
J.S. Bach - Violin Concerto in E major
