Manchester Camerata & Donald Grant - The Night Overtook Us
As the nights grow longer, wrap up for this nourishing and enriching journey to the Scottish Highlands.
Travel with the Manchester Camerata to Gaelic lands, where the winter nights are long and isolating.
Donald Grant’s newly commissioned work Thuit an Oidhche Oirnn (The Night Overtook Us) is inspired by the hardship, wild beauty and community spirit of an island winter.
Joined by esteemed musical friends from Scotland, the concert will be woven together by traditional and contemporary Scottish tunes and Gaelic Songs arranged by Donald. This is a sumptuous orchestral feast celebrating folk roots, with a twist.
Donald was brought up in the small village of Roybridge in the Highlands of Scotland before finding himself at St.Mary’s Music School and the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, where he founded the Elias Quartet.
