She's not just a fiddle player. She's a world-class dancer, internationally renowned concert artist and an entertainer whose sheer joy of performance makes her irresistible to audiences everywhere. The Los Angeles Times calls Canadian fiddler Natalie MacMaster “a ball of fire, performing jigs and reels with unstoppable, foot-tapping energy and ballads with irresistible, keening passion.” MacMaster has won over audiences around the world with her verve, musicianship and sheer joy in performing.

MacMaster has shared the stage with artists ranging from Carlos Santana and the Chieftains to Paul Simon, Luciano Pavarotti, Alison Krauss and Mark O'Connor.

"She may be the only violinist who can twirl across stage while

playing six notes a second and never miss a beat." - Houston Chronicle
