Northern Flyway

Celtic Connections: Inge Thomson and Jenny Sturgeon explore the ecology, folklore, symbolism and mythology of birds and birdsong at the Tron Theatre.

About Northern Flyway

Sorry, but this event has been and gone!

A brand-new creation by Inge Thomson and Jenny Sturgeon, Northern Flyway explores the ecology, folklore, symbolism and mythology of birds and birdsong.

Also featuring singer/multi-instrumentalist Sarah Hayes (Admiral Fallow) and the phenomenal vocal sculptor Jason Singh, it draws on such sources as the extensive field recordings of musician/composer and birdsong expert Magnus Robb, Sturgeon’s background as a biologist and Thomson’s home turf of Fair Isle, combining vocal and instrumental composition, sonic experimentation and lush, evocative visuals.

While we take every opportunity to ensure the details for Northern Flyway are accurate, we always advise that you contact the event organiser before setting out for the event to avoid disapointment.
