Alasdair Fraser & Natalie Haas in concert * Susquehanna Folk (SFMS)

Harrisburg Academy
Wormleysburg, PA

"Fraser appeared in his favoured current pairing with the young American cellist Natalie Haas, continuing to pursue their resurrection and reinvention of the classic musical marriage between big and small fiddles, a familiar feature of Scottish music in the 18th century. The duo's near-telepathic interplay was dazzling both for its breathtaking technical prowess and its boundless dynamism, be it in tunes from that same golden era, the age of Burns and Gow, or Fraser's own memorable compositions."
--Sue Wilson, Hi-Arts Journal, reviewing their concert at Celtic Connections in January 2008

"While his fiddle dances, her cello throbs darkly or plucks puckishly. Then she opens her cello's throat, joining Fraser in soaring sustains, windswept refrains, and sudden, jazzy explosions. Their sound is as urbane as a Manhattan midnight, and as wild as a Clackmannan winter."
Scott Alarik, Boston Globe
