Gemma Donald performs live at the Glenfiddich Fiddle Championship Celebration at Blair Castle

Celebrated Shetland fiddle player and 2006 Glenfiddich Fiddle Champion Gemma Donald, accompanied by Mo Rutherford on piano performs a slow air and reel that she composed, Mark’s Legacy and The Laird of Strathmill, followed by the reel Sean Maguire live at Blair Castle in Blair Atholl.

On 30 October 2016, seventeen of the twenty Glenfiddich Fiddle Champions returned to Blair Castle for a unique and memorable ‘festival of champions’ to celebrate the legacy of this very special competition. They were joined by US fiddler, Tim MacDonald who had already secured an invitation to compete had the Championship continued that year.

This celebration event provided a memorable finale to the Championship, following the decision by the William Grant Foundation to discontinue the event in order to support Scottish music in new ways in future.
