The Guardian says “it will raise you up and leave you misty eyed”. Natalie MacMaster returns to Portland’s Merrill Auditorium, and this time she’s bringing the whole family with her. Cape Breton’s famous fiddling phenom is joined by husband Donnell Leahy – an award winning fiddle vistuoso in his own right – and an incredible array of talented musicians (including their step-dancing/fiddling children – most recently seen on NBC’s Little Big Shots) for this special holiday concert.
