Trio Failte

The act

Your wedding could feel both lively and reflective with Trio Failte, whose Celtic music moves from driving dance rhythms to expressive slower melodies. Margaret Schlink plays viola and fiddle, Fiona Davidson plays fiddle and Krista Low plays cello, bringing three distinct musical backgrounds into the group. Their arrangements draw on Scottish fiddle, classical and Baroque experience, exploring old and modern Scottish and other Celtic tunes through reels, jigs, strathspeys and slow airs. Listen to the trio and consider whether the rhythmic pieces or the slower melodies match the feeling you want around your wedding celebrations.

Good to know

What to expect

Scottish and other Celtic fiddle music, old tunes and modern ones, arranged by the trio themselves rather than played from anyone else's version. The reels and jigs are lively, the slow airs go somewhere haunting, and the strathspeys can be elegant or full of drive depending on the tune.

On the day

Three chairs, and the trio are ready to go. Playing acoustically is what they would choose, which suits a ceremony, a smaller room or anywhere you want the instruments heard as they actually sound. If the space is large enough that the sound needs help reaching the back, condenser microphones can be used instead.
