Jamie Laval’s Scottish Solstice Celebration captures the beauty and atmosphere of the Scottish Highlands during the holidays, weaving a tapestry of music, dance, poetry, and stories that hearken back to the ancient Celtic celebrations associated with the Winter Solstice and Christmas. An entertaining and thought-provoking family holiday experience.
Headlining the show is Asheville-based violinist, guitarist, and storyteller Jamie Laval. In 2002 Laval won the U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Championship and has performed for Her Majesty The Queen. Laval’s recent album Murmurs and Drones won the popular vote for “Best World Traditional Album” in the 2012 Independent Music Awards. Joining Laval is an impressive lineup of acclaimed Celtic performers, including two Highland bagpipers, Celtic harpist, female vocalist, bombarde & bassoonist, and champion Highland dancers.
