| ‘Celtic Connections’ is an annual folk, roots and world music festival at venues in Glasgow, Scotland, from Thursday January 18th to Sunday February 4th. This festival celebrates Celtic music and its connections to cultures around the world. It is anticipated that over 2000 musicians from around the world will arrive in Glasgow for 18 days of concerts, ceilidhs, talks, art exhibitions, workshops, sessions, and free events. ‘Celtic Connections’ is organised by Artistic Director and accordionist Donald Shaw, and features more than 300 events across various musical genres. “There are situations that you’ll see where people are playing that you’ll never see again, or if you do, it’s because it worked here first” says Donald Shaw. This year’s guest line-up featuring accordions includes Le Vent du Nord, Sharon Shannon, John Kirkpatrick, Mairearad Green, Cherish the Ladies, Cuig, John Somerville (leading a beginners accordion workshop), and the fiddle/viola/accordion duo of Andreas Tophøj & Rune Barslund. |
