Sold out Saturday 23 March 2019 8pm - Harberton Folk presents
Aly Bain & Phil Cunningham in concert at Harberton Parish
Hall
A rare opportunity in the South-West to catch two of the best traditional
musicians you are ever likely to hear. Having toured together since 1986 to
packed concert halls all over the world, multi-award-winning Aly & Phil continue
to charm audiences with their stunning music, and on-stage charisma that defies
description. Witty and humorous banter sits alongside tunes that tug the
heartstrings, and joyous reels and melodies that have feet tapping along. Aly
(MBE and Doctor of Music), a founder member of Boys of the Lough, is rightly
regarded as Scotland's supreme fiddler- arguably the finest of all time. Aly
launched the popular BBC TV series ‘Transatlantic Sessions’ in which he and Phil
appear. Phil (MBE) is a world famous accordion player and composer. In recent
years Phil's work-load has included many commissions for TV and film and an
increasing amount of work as musical director for television and theatrical
events. This is just one small video sample of
their beautiful music:
