Bruadar Duo

Bruadar: ‘Dream’ (n. Scottish Gaelic)

Lynn Fraser – Flute

Kieran McCrossan – Classical Guitar

The Bruadar Duo was formed at the beginning of 2019. Brought together by a mutual passion for performing and a desire to explore and develop the repertoire for this wonderful Chamber Music pairing.

Together as the Bruadar Duo Lynn & Kieran have toured across Scotland playing in some of the most beautiful venues in the country.

Whilst enjoying exploring the core repertoire for flute and guitar, the Duo have a major interest in contemporary music and are committed to performing and promoting the work of Scottish composers. .

The Duo enjoy engaging with their audiences, sharing insights into the music being performed, and creating an atmosphere of inclusivity. Sharing the music and embracing the effect it can have on communal well-being brings great joy to both performers and audiences alike.
