The Fiddler’s Rally is a public concert where our main orchestra will be joined for the evening by other musicians from all around Scotland. The repertoire is primarily based around traditional Scottish music. This year the programme has a special focus on tunes from the North East to celebrate the life of Robbie Shepherd MBE and friend of the society who died this summer.
Our guest artists are graduates from the conservatoire in Glasgow, Cameron Nixon (fiddler and singer) and Rachel Campbell (Accordion), the compère will be Gary Coull.
