THE NIGHT OVERTOOK US – AN EVENING OF SCOTTISH FOLK MUSIC: Donald Grant & Friends

Donald Grant, Elias Quartet violinist, is also a master of the folk fiddle. Raised in the Highlands, Donald was immersed in Gaelic song and Scottish music from an early age. His folk projects are infused with his life-long passion for this music tradition and inflected, through his many collaborations, with the spirit of jazz and the musical rigour of his classical work. He brings his band of exceptional musicians from Glasgow to collaborate with Ensemble 360 to perform excerpts from his new piece Thuit an Oidhche Oirnm (The Night Overtook Us) as well as classic tunes from his album ‘The Way Home’.
