About this Event

Prepare to be captivated by an extraordinary evening of music under the soft glow of candlelight, in the stunning Greyfriars Hall in Virgin Hotels Edinburgh.

Line-Up

Headlining the evening is Pilar Winter Hill, and 18-year-old Julliard-trained violinist from Brooklyn, NY, hailed by Teen Vogue as one of the "21 Under 21; Young People Changing the World." Pilar's classical mastery will take centre stage, accompanied by two equally talented artists.

Joining her, and playing host for the evening, is Edinburgh-based Dara Dubh, a renowned harpist and traditional folk musician, bringing the rich sounds of the harp to life. Also gracing the stage is Connor Civatte who combines a knowledge of pipes, fiddle, and a variety of other instruments, to be an effective musical storyteller in the Scottish tradition.

The evening will be set in the impressive Greyfriars Hall with a bar available for drinks, making it the perfect setting to unwind and immerse yourself in an unforgettable autumn evening of music and atmosphere.
