Event information
Inspired by the lively traditional dance music of Europe, Hearken Quartet are an energetic ensemble of clarinet, Uillean pipes, guitar, piano and diatonic accordion. Bringing flesh flavours to Euro-bal music, whether its the chain dances of Brittany, Scandinavian couple dances, or the bourree of the French Auvergne, Hearken Quartet delivers delicious arrangements of tunes new and old that will whet the appetites of traditional and contemporary music fans alike.
Elye Cuthbertson is bringing a new sound to the folk scene with his unique approach to the melodeon. Elye has been immersing himself in English folk music for 10 years under the guidance of some of the finest teachers of the tradition. Combining this English folk experience with his passion for Balfolk and other traditions from throughout Europe, his compositions reflect his varied influences.
