A Scottish Christmas
Great Performers Series Artist
Performance(s):
Saturday, December 10, 2005: 8:00 p.m.
Imagine a crisp Scottish winter day - air spiced with the scent of strong wassail, a dusting of snow, and the call of bagpipes
over the Highlands. A Scottish Christmas presents a lively collection of Scottish carols, wassail tunes, and traditional
Highland music and dances, featuring Bonnie Rideout, one of the finest Scottish fiddlers of our time. A three-time US-Scottish
fiddle champion, she is regularly featured on NPR's program The Thistle & Shamrock and has also appeared on Morning Edition
and Performance Today.
This delightful show is presented by some of the most legendary Celtic musicians from both North America and Scotland, blending
the sounds of the fiddle, bagpipes, Uillieann pipes, Border pipes, clarsach (Celtic harp), bodran (Celtic frame drum), guitar and
voice. Traditional dancers add grace and excitement. Celebrate Christmas, Hogmany (Scottish New Year's Eve), and the New Year
with "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen," "Greensleeves," "Adeste Fideles," and more!
As seen on CBS Sunday Morning, A Scottish Christmas offers riveting fiddle and pipe solos, fiery Scottish dances including
tap and soft shoe, and an emotional finale.
From across the Highland moors into the castle drawing rooms and village squares, celebrate the many moods of A Scottish
Christmas.
