Tour Scotland Video Grant McFarlane Accordion Music Greyfriars Bar Perth Perthshire
Tour Scotland video of Grant McFarlane from Paisley by Glasgow playing traditional Scottish accordion music in the Greyfriars Bar on visit to Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. Grant on accordion with Mhairi Mackinnon on fiddle accompanied by Alistair Cassidy and Ian Bain. The accordion originated in Italy in the early 19th century and became popular all over Europe. It quickly found its place in Scottish music, its greater power lending itself to playing alongside the fiddle in dance bands, and its complexity allowing it to play a wide variety of tunes and styles.
