In recent commissions, Scottish harpist Esther Swift’s work has centred around poetry. Watch her live performance of ‘The Light Gatherer’, in which she sets Carol Ann Duffy’s poem to music. It is among the many works she will be performing on her upcoming Scotland-wide tour in March.
Scottish duo Catriona Price and Esther Swift who sail under the name of Twelfth Day recently launched a Kickstarter Campaign for their new album Cracks In The Room, their “most honest, raw and exciting work yet.”
Our Song of the Day is ‘Shell Story’, the title track of Twelfth Day’s new mini-LP which is out today. It features two original tracks by Scottish duo, an arrangement of a Schubert song ‘Romanze’, and four remixes of tracks from The Devil Makes Three
Twelfth Day kindly take some time out of their incredibly busy schedules to answer questions about their musical partnership and their exciting plans for the months ahead.
Despite its title, The Devil Makes Three finds Catriona Price and Esther Swift in heavenly harmony as Twelfth Day serve up an album of stunning vocal and instrumental skill.
