Masters of the Celtic Harp: Gráinne Hambly & William Jackson presents two of the foremost harpers from Ireland and Scotland, combining their extraordinary talents on harp as well as concertina, tin whistle and bouzouki. Gráinne Hambly of County Mayo captures harp enthusiasts as well as Irish music fans with her taste for fast, driving reels and jigs as well as slow airs and laments. A senior All-Ireland winner on both harp and concertina, she has produced 3 CDs, recorded extensively with top artists and published several books of arrangements. She tours most of the year, appearing at major harp and Irish music festivals in the U.S. and Europe. William Jackson of Glasgow has been at the forefront of Scottish traditional music since founding the band Ossian 35 years ago. One of Scotland's leading multi-instrumentalists on harp, tin whistle, fiddle, bouzouki and bodhran, William also has an international reputation as a composer, blending Celtic influences with classical instrumentation. In 1999, his "Land of Light" won the international competition as the new song for Scotland. He has composed music for the BBC and Scottish television, and recently directed and performed the music for the History Channel's "The Battle of the Clans." With demanding solo careers that often have them performing on different continents, we're thrilled to bring these Masters of the Celtic Harp together in Woods Hole.
