The Scottish Fiddle Orchestra
Northern Lights
DOWNLOAD
This compact disc features the soundtrack of the video of the same name which was released following the Scottish Fiddle Orchestra’s 10th Anniversary Concert.

The Scottish Fiddle Orchestra, formed in early 1980 by a group of enthusiastic Scottish musicians, gave its inaugural concert that year in the Music Hall in Aberdeen. For their 10th Anniversary Gala Concert what more fitting surroundings could there be than that beautifully refurbished building in the land of the Northern Lights.

The title is taken from the popular song by Mary Webb and is featured on the compact disc. Mary died in 1989 and her ashes are at rest in the city which she, in music, made so famous.

Included in the performance are many new pieces by the orchestra under its leader William Cook, and songs by Mary Sandeman and James Nicol. From the traditional reels and jigs to the New World Music by the young SFO folk symphony, from the sad evocative "Heroes of Longhope" to the stirring strains and spiritually uplifting "Highland Cathedral", featuring John McCulloch, Mar, James and the Orchestra, this compact disc is a lasting reminder of the splendid variety of this performance.

The Scottish Fiddle Orchestra, now internationally popular with its guests under its ebullient conductor, provide an evening to remember.
