Instruments

Fiddle players

The show’s fiddle players are unique in that all are classically trained, yet they are experienced in the very distinctive folk playing style that the music demands. Furthermore, they are unique in their experience as stage performers which brings a thrilling flair to a fiendishly technical instrument.

Bagpipers

Is any instrument as unique to a country as the bagpipes are to Scotland? All players of this instrument in the world owe their identity as bagpipers to this culture, and the Spirit of Scotland Show showcases this pedigree. Though in constant demand at weddings, funerals, military events and national occasions, they are on our stage each and every night to entertain and inspire international audiences.

Accordion Players

The accordion players are the backbone of the show’s musical experience, as much as this instrument is to Scotland’s traditional evenings of group dancing known as ‘ceilidhs’. The Spirit of Scotland Show is fortunate to have the most skilled and versatile accordion players in the country: their minds are a catalogue of our culture’s folk ballads and dances, acquired through the players’ active participation in traditional music festivals across the country.

Performers & Dancers

Adult Dancers

Each of our adult dancers is highly adept in the huge variety of styles in which they have trained and competed across the United Kingdom for their whole lives. The traditional dances they perform throughout the evening at our show have long and significant histories, yet the show also benefits from the more modern styles of dance that these performers can turn into on a dime.

Wee Dancers

We are delighted to have ‘wee’ dancers join us from Phelan School of Dance, Debra-Ann School of Dance, Dunedin Dance Academy, and Brenda Ronnie School of Highland Dancing and we are grateful to all of their wonderful teachers.
