Andrea Stern (Celtic harps) and Laura MacKenzie (wooden flutes, concertina, whistles, various bagpipes, and voice) form the duo Willow Brae. “Brae” is a Lowland Scots word meaning hillside by a river, and their name refers to a bank of willow trees swaying alongside a Scottish stream. Andrea and Laura skillfully convey traditional music from the Scottish and Irish countrysides, featuring their unique array of instruments while providing light history and stories about those instruments and their music. The Magic of Celtic Music will charm and uplift youth and adults with beautiful slow airs, joyful jigs and reels, and fascinating instrumentation! This free program is 1 hour long and is geared towards audiences age 7 and up.
