OurConcerts.live: Alasdair Fraser & Bruce Molsky
$15
Alasdair Fraser, fiddle
Bruce Molsky, fiddle
Legendary Scottish fiddler Alasdair Fraser and revered Appalachian old-time fiddler Bruce Molsky will trade some well-loved tunes found in both their cultures and swap stories from a musical partnership that extends over 25 years. Appalachian and Scottish music share centuries of melodies and songs, and it was Alasdair’s and Bruce’s curiosity and wide-open ears (and also some good luck) that brought them together. Both have dug deep into the musical traditions of other countries and integrated what moved them into their own voices.
Bruce was a guest artist on Highlander’s Farewell, an album by Alasdair and Alasdair’s longtime collaborator, cello phenom Natalie Haas, and regularly teaches at the five camp retreats established by Alasdair throughout the world where players come to learn, share community, and celebrate all kinds of fiddle music. Alasdair and Bruce believe that music exists to bring people together, and their vast works are joyful living proof.
The livestream will take place at 1pm Eastern / 10am Pacific.
