Three talented musicians are set to perform in West Lothian later this month.
Kosmos will bring their programme of world music to Linlithgow Academy.
Wild Gypsy fiddling, emotive Jewish and Greek music glide seamlessly into hot-blooded tango, alongside interpretations of Japanese, Polish and Sephardic songs, new arrangements by and for the ensemble, and with references to classical composers including Bach, Brahms and Sarasate.
Kosmos perform in a wide mix of musical styles from the Balkans, North Africa, the Middle East to gypsy music, argentine tango, flamenco, celtic and jazz as well as classical music.
The players are all trained classical musicians and they have collected their music from travels around the world.
United by their shared passion for performing, and in their rigorous classical training, each member of Kosmos is an international soloist and brings individual flavour to the group.
Playing Violin, viola and classical accordion, Harriet, Meg and Milos have performed across Europe as well as at the UK’s most prestigious music festivals.
Broadcasts include BBC Radio 3 and Classic FM. They recently premiered a triple concerto specially written for the ensemble by the eminent composer Errollyn Wallen.
The concert, promoted by Linlithgow Arts Guild, is at Linlithgow Academy Theatre on Saturday, March 14, at 7.30pm.
Tickets are £14, U26 £6, children free, are available from Far from the Madding Crowd, online at www.linlithgowartsguild.co.uk (no booking fee) or can be reserved by text to 07731 614179.
