Award Winning Cape Breton Scottish Fiddler Andrea Breaton this Tuesday at Nighttown. Joined by Dick Hensold on bagpipes. This will be a fun and unique concert at Nighttown this Tuesday November 18. This concert of traditional Cape Breton Scottish fiddling and piping will feature Andrea Beaton, with piper Dick Hensold and pianist Tyson Chen. The concert will focus on the musical and cultural interplay between the fiddle and the pipes, two instruments that have had a long, close, and mutually influential relationship in the Gaelic communities on Cape Breton. Cape Breton Island, at the Eastern end of the Canadian maritime province of Nova Scotia, was settled about 200 years ago by some 50,000 Gaelic-speaking Scottish Highlanders. Because of the Highlanders’ isolation, both before emigration and after, Cape Breton is believed to authentically preserve many aspects of 18th-century Highland Scots Gaelic culture, particularly its music and dance. The concert starts at 7PM and tickets are just $15. Hope you can join us for a fun evening of Scottish music.
