Ruckus featuring Keir GoGwilt and Fiona Gillespie
Edinburgh Rollick ~ A Robert Burns Celebration
Sláinte Mhath! January 25 is the birthday of Scottish poet Robert Burns, and each year since 1801 the event is celebrated with poetry and song. Ruckus and violin virtuoso Keir GoGwilt celebrate the legacy of Niel Gow (b. Perthshire, 1727–1807), known as “the Scottish Corelli” alongside sonatas of his namesake, in this dynamic folk-Baroque feast. Weaving together Corelli’s sonatas with the jubilant, hard-driving and nostalgic tunes of Niel Gow, Ruckus and GoGwilt bring the 18th-century tradition of blending folk and art music to the present day.
Sunday, January 25 at 5 pm
