Duncan Chisholm has long been revered as one of Scotland’s all time great fiddle players and is one of the most accomplished and authentic interpreters of traditional Highland fiddle music. His music is elegant, trancelike and tender, laced with strokes of genius. This correlation between music and the natural world lies at the heart of what Duncan Chisholm does, drawing from a well of musical inspiration and Highland Culture that runs 700 years deep. Since the release of his seminal album ‘Redpoint’ almost 20 years ago, the natural elements that make the Highlands of Scotland such a unique canvas have been the force and motivation behind his music. His use of melody comes from the tradition within the Highlands of telling stories and painting visual pictures through music. In this world there are very few who match Duncan Chisholm.
