From Old to New - Ulster Scots Song

A Glenarm Festival of Voice Event

From Old to New - Ulster Scots Song

Come and explore how Ulster Scots song has changed over time: from folk song evolving into classical art song to folk song influences in contemporary song.

This afternoon concert is curated and performed by mezzo soprano Carolyn Dobbin, with pianist Tristan Russcher, who will lead you on a path through the evolutions of Ulster Scots song across an hour of beautiful song and fascinating musical insights.

This popular event has previously been performed in the Grand Opera House Studio as part of our Outreach Week events in 2022 and for Ards and North Down’s ‘Leid and Lairn’ festival in November 2024
