Help: Scottish Musicians in Russia

Subject: Scottish Musicians in Russia
From: GUEST,Ewan McVicar

I am just back from a visit to a Centre for Scottish Culture in the city of Perm, 1000 km south east of Moscow. I am planning with them a Festival of Scottish Culture in April 2002.
Does anyone have contacts for Scots singers / pipers / fiddlers / accordionists in Russia? I hear there are some pipers in Moscow at least.
All contacts and advice gratefully received.

Ewan, Brian Miller (Penicuik Folk Club) toured Russia a couple of years ago with his band Handsel and Gordeanna MCulloch. He may be able to help. His email address is brian@horniegollach.com. (I would have sent this privately but you are a Guest .....). Give my love to DebC when you see her. Murray

Why don't you try the Moscow Caledonian Club. Bedlam can help as well.
