The King's Shilling
Celtic Connections, 2016

A show, premiered at Celtic Connections in 2016, inspired in part by my participation in Far, Far from Ypres. Featuring - Singers: Colum Sands, Fiona Hunter, Steve Turner, Arthur Cormack, Fiona Byrne, Heather Heywood. Musicians: Allan Henderson, Iain MacFarlane, Jim Byrne, Inness Watson, Mike Vass. Narrator: Hugh Dan MacLennan. Written by Pete Heywood

This is a single static camera live recording of a performance of The King's Shilling @ Celtic Connections 2016.  The aim was simply to record the moment 'for posterity' and no post processing has been done on this video - so it was exactly 'as it happened'.  The Audio is also from the camera which was positioned close to the audience around one third of the way down the hall. This inevitably reduces the quality of the performance audio but has the advantage of capturing the feel and sound of the concert from an audience perspective.
