“Beautiful – dare one say spellbinding” The Scotsman

Two of Scotland’s foremost traditional musicians, Rachel Newton and Lauren MacColl, share musical tales inspired by and in remembrance of real women persecuted and tried as witches. With stories of traditions and beliefs from Shetland to the Solway, they explore characters from folk tales and mythology enshrined in our oral culture. This newly composed music, with accompanying visuals by Alison Piper, gives voice to the voiceless and brings past and present together.
