The Fiddler's Friend
with Alasdair Fraser (fiddle) and Jody Stecher (guitar)
Considered a superb Cape Breton-style pianist, Magone remains much in demand both as accompanist and as a soloist in her own right. She performed for three Masters of the Folk Violin tours sponsored by the Smithsonian and the National Council for the Traditional Arts and has subsequently performed and/or recorded with Irish fiddlers Liz Carroll, Séamus Connolly, James Kelly, Dale Russ, Máiréad Ní Mhaonaigh and Irish concertina champion Gearóid Ó hAllmhuráin.
Barbara is joined by long time friend and musical colleague, master Scottish fiddler Alasdair Fraser. A consummate performer, Fraser’s dynamic fiddling, engaging stage presence, and deep understanding of Scottish and Cape Breton music keep him in constant demand worldwide.
