About Scottish and European Folk Day with Dowally and Friends
Rachel Petyt and Dan Abrahams will host and collaborate with a showcase of incredible musicians from Scotland and across the continent.
The line-up includes virtuosic Hungarian violinist Janos Lang (Ando Glaso) who will be joined by two authentic Romanian masters of Gypsy music, showcasing various Roma musical styles. Other performers include Eastern European female vocal ensemble Davno, Flamenco vocal and guitar duo Ivan Martin & Tomas De la Rosa and Scottish accordionist Magnus Turpie. Each act will perform alone and also join forces with Dowally and the other performers.
The evening promises to be a joyous celebration of the beauty of traditional music in Scotland and Europe.
