“A beautifully shot documentary”
A documentary following two of the world’s brightest fiddle talents – Colin Grant from Nova Scotia and Ewen Henderson from Scotland – as they travel through history, heritage, musical influences and stunning scenery to inspire a live performance at the world famous Celtic Colours International Music Festival in 2017.
