Master fiddler Duncan Chisholm brings Black Cuillin show to Perth
05.05.2023 - 11:19 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A highly anticipated fiddle concert to stir the senses is happening at Perth Concert Hall on Saturday night.
World-famous Scottish trad musician Duncan Chisholm takes up his bow to promote his new album ‘Black Cuillin’ which was released in December.
The inspiration for Duncan’s incredible new album is drawn from the mountain wilderness on the Isle of Skye and from the words of Sorley MacLean.
Written and arranged during lockdown, Black Cuillin brings statuesque landscapes of sound together with pieces of exquisite and delicate beauty.
Duncan was joined on the album by eight stars of Scottish traditional music together with a seventeen piece string ensemble, ‘The Clockwork Sessions’.
In centre stage with his fiddle, Duncan’s fabulous concert on May 6 includes Perthshire’s own Ross Ainslie on whistles and Perth’s Patsy Reid on her fiddle.
There’s Jarlath Henderson playing Uilleann pipes, Hamish Napier on piano, Donald Shaw providing piano and accordion, Martin O’Neill on bodhrán, plus Ross Hamilton playing electric guitar and bass and Malcolm Jones with his electric guitar.
“The secret of creating good music is creating a great team,” said Duncan of his talented collaborators. “You can’t just do it yourself, you have to spin ideas around.
“I’ve been very fortunate. Patsy Reid is an extraordinary player and Ross Ainslie, well he is a force!
“The essences of my music for the last 15 years has been landscape. I try and represent how you feel within a landscape. I like places that move you. I first climbed the Black Cuillin in 2019.
“The tunes on Black Cuillin not only speak of the fortress of Skye, but also the redemption and freedom that lie within those dark ramparts. I hope what we have produced feels cinematic, expansive, epic
