Carlos Núñez, Philip Pickett & Musicians of the Globe

Two Pipers Piping - a riotous, foot-stomping Celtic celebration

Queen Elizabeth Hall

Friday 1 February 2013

The brilliant Galician piper and Celtic folk-legend Carlos Núñez joins international early music stars Philip Pickett and the Musicians of the Globe for a riotous evening of traditional Scottish and Irish jigs, reels, hornpipes and ballads.

Featuring pipes, whistles, fiddles, guitars, bandora, drums and more, it's an electrifying collaboration reviving the dazzling music that was once blown, strummed and scraped in the streets, taverns and theatres of old London.

'The toast of Celtic Connections. No tricks, no safety net, just sheer bone-deep music.' (The Scotsman)
