SATURDAY, MAY 20, 2023, 7pm: The San Francisco Scottish Fiddlers and world-renowned Scottish fiddler Alasdair Fraser come to the Spangenberg Theater in Palo Alto, LIVE and IN PERSON for the second of three concerts in our traditional Spring Concert Series.
Our players come from all over the country to share this annual celebration to play by heart. The deep and joyful music of Alasdair Fraser's inspired solo fiddle along with the full band of a hundred musicians captures the essence of springtime. The massed ranks of fiddles are joined by cellos, guitars, drums, harps, flutes, basses, and piano. Over the past year we spent the summer absorbing the music, the winter distilling the arrangements and composing harmonies, and now we invite you to share our very best work.
Come with us on a musical journey across the world of fiddle music from northern California to Quebec, to Ireland and Scotland, and north to the Shetland Islands.
The other concerts in this year's series will be on Friday, May 19 at The Freight & Salvage in Berkeley, and a matinee in Carmel on Sunday, May 21. For more information on these concerts, please visit sffiddles.org. Learn more about Alasdair Fraser at AlasdairFraser.com
