More on last nights concert : the stand out was Bryan Gear from Shetland accompanied by Violet Tulloch, wonderful, wonderful Willie Hunter style playing. The "star" player was Calvin Vollrath who was also fantastic though in a completely different way : vast technique and skill in lots of different styles. Lots of good sound samples on hist site, including his tuned named for Bryan Gear which they played together last night. (They all played in Edinburgh the night before and Phil Cunningham and Ali Bain tutned up so that must have been better). The end of the gig was weird as it looked as though all the fiddlers were going to come on and play together and that seemed to get stifled very quickly for some reason.
