KIN (DUNCAN CHISHOLM)

A perfect blend of live contemporary folk music; including film, photographs and words. Kin is a beautifully crafted journey into the past, which is illuminating, evocative and moving. Kin delivers a deep understanding of people and place that is truly unforgettable. Duncan Chisholm demonstrates what can be achieved by crossing the boundaries. A multi-media production; Kin celebrates landscape, language, tradition, community and family – young and old. These are the things, which Duncan describes as being fundamental to the Highland psyche, “to our place in the world and to the inspiration of our people”.
