ALASDAIR FRASER & NATALIE HAAS
Acclaimed by the San Francisco Examiner as "the Michael Jordan of Scottish fiddling," Alasdair has a concert and recording career spanning 30 years. Featured on CBS Sunday Morning, A Prairie Home Companion, and Mountain Stage, he has also made guest appearances with The Chieftains and performed as featured soloist along with Itzhak Perlman at New York's Lincoln Center. His film credits include solo performances on the soundtracks of The Last of the Mohicans and Titanic. On The Kennedy Center Honors (CBS), Fraser played a special solo tribute to honoree Sean Connery, a fellow Scot.
His collaboration with the sizzlingly-talented cellist Natalie Haas has led to dazzling teamwork, driving rhythms and a shared passion for improvising on the melodies of Scottish tunes. They have toured internationally for over 18 years, thrilling audiences with their virtuosic playing, their near-telepathic understanding and the joyful spontaneity and sheer physical presence of their music.
In 2011, Alasdair was inducted into the Scottish Traditional Music Hall of Fame. Natalie, a graduate of the Juilliard School of Music, is one of the most sought after cellists in traditional music today. She has performed and recorded with a who's who of the fiddle world including Mark O'Connor, Natalie MacMaster, Irish supergroups Solas and Altan, Liz Carroll, Dirk Powell, Brittany Haas, Darol Anger, and many more.
They will perform in the acoustically sublime historic sanctuary of the Phippsburg Congregational Church
