This is not your standard concert. Unwind on a beanbag with a drink in hand while the award-winning Barokksolistene’s The Alehouse Sessions catapults you back in time to a jam session. Encounter dance, improvisation and storytelling as Usher Hall turns into a London pub straight out of the 1680s.

The Alehouse Sessions

Usher Hall

From whence comes our American Christmas tradition? Wassailing is ancient – it has variously meant welcoming, drinking, singing along, giving alms, or celebrating them all at once with a special mulled drink: the wassail! Bjarte Eike, Steven Player, and Emi Ferguson lead us on a merry merging of music and myth, creating a vibrant new tradition that deepens our roots to our antic past. Come sing, laugh, and recall a younger time when the nights were long, the frost was deadly, and pagan spirits and holy saints mingled in harmony. This performance will include refreshments.
