Sláinte Mhath! January 25 is the birthday of Scottish poet Robert Burns, and each year since 1801 the event is celebrated with poetry and song. Ruckus and violin virtuoso Keir GoGwilt celebrate the legacy of Niel Gow (b. Perthshire, 1727-1807), known as ‘the Scottish Corelli’ alongside sonatas of his namesake, in this dynamic folk-Baroque feast. Weaving together Corelli’s sonatas with the jubilant, hard-driving and nostalgic tunes of Niel Gow, Ruckus and GoGwilt bring the 18th-century tradition of blending folk and art music to the present day.“GoGwilt has…utter command of the wild rhythmic energy needed to make this repertoire sparkle, not to mention being unafraid to crunch his bow against the strings.”
