About The Spire Concert Series: Scottish Fiddle Concept

Listed Under Music Events

The Scottish Fiddle Concept has a real part to play in the cultural life of Scotland and further afield. It was founded by two of Scotland's foremost violinists - Angus Anderson and Angus Ramsay to illustrate the fiddle music of their native soil played with all the style and facility of modern violin technique. Their performances fit any venue from the concert platform to country house surroundings.

Violinist Angus Ramsay studied with Leonard Friedman and Max Rostal. He enjoys a career playing in chamber music, as a soloist and also as a principal player in the Scottish Opera Orchestra. He also teaches privately and in the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.

Violinist Angus Anderson studied at the Royal Academy of Music and in Switzerland, and held positions in five different orchestras including associate leader of the RSNO and leader of the Scottish Opera Orchestra under Sir Alexander Gibson. The last 11 years of his orchestral life were spent as a member of one of the world's greatest orchestras, The Philharmonia. He remains extremely active as a teacher, chamber music player and soloist. For over 30 years he has been a member of Cantilena, with whom he toured South America and with whom he recorded Vivaldi's Four Seasons for Scottish Television.

The performances are interchangeable with other genres of music from Baroque, Classical, Romantic and Modern, including popular pieces such as:

Ragtime: Joplin's Bethena Ragtime Waltz, Rose Leaf Rag, Solace
Baroque: dances by Leclair, Monti's Czardas
Classical: Méditation de Thaïs

Ticket price includes pre-concert refreshements from 12 noon.
