CELTIC-MUSIC concert with Michael McGoldrick and Tim Edey

Michael McGoldrick and Tim Edey have been friends for many years and have often performed on the same stage. But as some of the best-known artists on the folk-trad scene, both are in high demand, so it's a rare opportunity to see them on tour together. Their last two concerts in Olten in May 2023 and October 2024 were completely sold out and thrilled audiences thanks to the spontaneity and virtuosity of the two thoroughbred musicians. A treat of a special kind and it is highly recommended to use the advance booking.

Michael McGoldrick is regarded as one of the greatest flautists of all time. He is a co-founder of Flook and Lunasa and has been the linchpin of Capercaillie's line-up since 1998. Michael McGoldrick, born in Manchester, has played around the globe in recent years with ex-Dire Straits legend Mark Knopfler's band - including a tour with Knopfler and Bob Dylan. Despite a long list of stellar collaborations, his true genius lies in his own groundbreaking work as a musician and composer.

Multi-instrumentalist and composer Tim Edey is originally from Kent, England, but is of Irish descent and at home on stages around the world, performing with big names from the folk and roots music scene such as Lunasa, The Chieftains, Christy Moore, Sharon Shannon, Natalie MacMaster and many more. He is regarded as one of the best harmonica and guitar players on the traditional scene - his live shows are a breathtaking mix of instrumental virtuosity and passion, inspired by world music but always with a strong Celtic flavor.

The two "superstars" from the traditional music scene promise a highly entertaining evening with musical flights of fancy.

Instruments: Flute, whistle, uilleann pipes, guitar, melodeon, vocals
