Malcolm MacFarlane

News April 2008
I’m preparing to record a CD with Adam Bulley - which will be released to co-incide with our Edinburgh Festival Fringe shows in August. the SOT have just done some really nice gigs with Scott Hamilton and we’ll be doing more later in the year - dates will come up as they’re confirmed. I’m also writing away as ever - for Vic’s new film, some string quartet pieces and various other work as it comes along!
Scores
I’ve been uploading my scores, slowly, on to a really cool site: http://www.scotchsnap.com
please check it out. eventually I aim to have everthing on there!
Sessions
I’ve been doing a few ’online’ sessions and would love to do more so if you’ve got any tracks you’d like me to play on I’d be very up for talking about that (send me a message before you send any tracks!).
Composition
I’ve been writing loads of new music for my solo CD and also for the SGQ etc. please keep checking out MYSPACE for demos!
Youtube!
I’m starting to put some stuff up on youtube (myself, the trio and the guitar quartet) it should be easy enough to find - just search for my name or Scottish Guitar Quartet etc.
