The Ceilidh Sessions
Scottish tradition meets Baroque flair in this lively celebration of music and storytelling.
Flawless Norwegian folk ensemble Barokksolistene returns to the Festival for another rip-roaring concert after the enormous popularity of The Alehouse Sessions. This time, they’ll be adding some Scottish flavour in this dramatic setting at the heart of our Festival city.
Gather at Princes Street Gardens with your loved ones for an afternoon of music and storytelling, inspired by the Gaelic ceilidh tradition. Barokksolistene bring their characteristically energetic performance style to the table.
Alongside beloved dances like The Gay Gordons and Strip the Willow, Barokksolistene adds an irresistible repertoire of Baroque music, sea shanties and alehouse tunes to the mix.
