***Two traditions. Ten extraordinary musicians. One unforgettable night. Two of the world’s most celebrated traditional music bands come together for Le Retour: Scotland Meets Quebec — a thrilling live collaboration between Scotland’s Breabach and Quebec’s Le Vent du Nord.*** \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ This special concert brings together the fire, beauty and deep-rooted energy of two musical cultures with a shared history. Scotland and Quebec have long been connected through migration, language, dance and song, and in Le Retour that connection becomes a vivid, joyful and powerful live experience. First brought together in 2010 through the acclaimed project *Le Québec rencontre l’Écosse*, **Breabach** and **Le Vent du Nord** toured across Scotland and Quebec, discovering an immediate musical kinship. They return with a bold new show shaped through creative residencies in Glasgow and at the Savannah Music Festival. This is not a double bill. It is a full ten-piece collaboration, with both bands performing together as one ensemble. Highland pipes, uilleann pipes, whistle, fiddle, step-dance, guitar and double bass meet hurdy-gurdy, diatonic accordion, bouzouki, foot percussion and the rich vocal traditions of French-speaking Canada. The result is a concert full of blazing reels, driving rhythms, beautiful songs, slow airs and the irresistible lift of world-class musicians playing side by side. ***This event will last approximately 90 minutes.***
