Join Ingrid Henderson for an hour of music, song and conversation in this special new series at Blas 2026. Supported by the Expanded Festivals Fund, Ingrid will be joined by tradition bearers, musicians, singers and dancers across three special events in the beautiful setting of Inverness Castle. Each gathering will be a chance to share music, traditions and stories, celebrating the people at the heart of our rich musical culture and heritage.

Today, Ingrid will share stories and music with renowned Cape Breton fiddler Stan Chapman, who has made a significant contribution to Cape Breton fiddling, particularly music for dancing. He will be joined by Alison Carlyle and Amy Geddes, who are performing their incredible step-dance show 'Deiseil: Dancing in Time' at this year's Blas Festival.
