Magical Strings announces the 43rd Annual

Celtic Yuletide 

Sunday, December 12, 2021 - 3:00pm

For many in the Northwest, it wouldn’t be the holidays without the harps, dulcimers, and energetic Celtic sounds of acclaimed family ensemble Magical Strings. The tradition continues this year, as Magical Strings announces its 41st triumphant year of annual Celtic Yuletide Concerts taking place throughout Puget Sound in December 2019! Surprises lie in wait…

Enter the timeless realm of Celtic Yuletide! Three generations of the Boulding family set the stage ablaze with the Tara Academy Irish Dancers, lively fiddling, soulful songs with brilliant Dublin guitarist Colm MacCarthaigh, powerful vocals and singalongs led by Prescott Breeden, and dynamic percussionist Matt Jerrell. Philip and Pam’s Celtic harp and hammered dulcimer sing mysteries from their most recent sojourns in Ireland, augmented by cello, violin, whistles, accordion and concertina. This festive gala of music, dance, storytelling, juggling, a colorful costumed processional and songs of the season brings warmth and joy into the heart of winter.

“…each year it just becomes more magical!”

“…haven’t missed a show in 30 years!”

“Our favorite Christmas tradition!!”
