nollaig-shona

Three of the top names in traditional Celtic music return to the ICHC to share their Nova Scotian and Irish holiday traditions in a magical evening of music, song, dance and stories. Accompanied by a guest guitarist, the performers will bring their audience into the relaxed atmosphere of friends and family gathered around the fire during Christmas.

Coming from a long line of Cape Breton musicians (acclaimed fiddler Natalie MacMaster is a cousin), Andrea has established herself through the power, drive and crispness of her bow as well her percussive dancing.

Nuala’s hauntingly beautiful vocals and adventurous instrumentation on flute spring from traditional Irish and Scottish music as well as from the fathomless realms of her own imagination. She has a “voice as luminous as her flute,” according to Rhythms Magazine. 

Troy is an award-winning and internationally recognized virtuoso of Cape Breton-style fiddle and piano. In 2012 he was a recipient of the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for outstanding contributions to culture in Canada.
