| March 21, 2010: Kimberley Fraser and Troy MacGillivray | ||
 Kimberley Fraser and Troy MacGillivray return this year to entertain us with traditional music from Cape Breton and Nova Scotia.
Kimberley Fraser and Troy MacGillivray return for a third consecutive year
to entertain us with traditional music from Cape Breton and Nova Scotia.
Despite her youth, Kimberley has toured North America and Europe enough to
become "one of the stellar players of the Cape Breton fiddle tradition"
(Cape Breton Post) and a master at the "Cape Breton trifecta" (fiddle,
stepdancing, and piano). She played piano for the acclaimed Irish group
"Cherish the Ladies" when they toured Sweden in 2004. Troy's prodigious
talents are influenced by the Celtic music of his Highland ancestors as well
as years of orchestral experience and conservatory studies. After winning
Instrumental Recording of 2008 at Canada's East Coast awards, Troy took the
honors in 2009 for "Roots/Traditional Album of the year" with his newest
album, "When Here Meets There," as well as Honorable Mention at the
prestigious International Songwriting Competition. In performance, Troy and
Kimberley accompany one another, swap instruments as well as stories, and
take turns on the dance floor. Join us for an evening of invigorating tunes,
and come early if you want a good view of the dancing! For more info visit: Kimberley Fraser's website and Troy MacGillivray's website |
