Scottish fiddle master Alasdair Fraser links bows with vibrant young cellist Natalie Haas in an exciting weave of rocking, reeling rhythms, poignant melodies and exquisite musicianship. The duo has created a buzz among Celtic music lovers at festivals & concerts across the United States and Europe. "Fraser, one of the most respected of all exponents of the Scots fiddle, would look long and hard to find a more appropriate cellist as a partner. Haas can switch just as effortlessly as Fraser from a gentle singing tone to driving, dancing melody... all played with that combination of driving bow work and musical sensitivity that we have come to expect from Fraser. A positive joy." - the Scotsman.
