About the Musicians

​

A Parcel of Rogues: Susie Petrov (piano) and Calum Pasqua (fiddle) 

 

This duo brings a wealth of Scottish music and dance experience to Madison. Calum was the first American to win the Glenfiddich Scottish Fiddle Competition in Scotland and also holds a US Scottish Fiddle Championship. Susie, who plays both piano and accordion, is an accomplished Scottish Country Dance teacher who has shared her talents across the US, Canada, Scotland, and central Europe. Susie and Calum have performed Scottish music together for concerts, Highland Balls and summer camps since their reunion in 2008.

​

KeyReel Raskolenko plays for Royal Scottish Country Dance Society (RSCDS) dances in his adopted home of Dallas, Texas. In addition to playing classical music and jazz, KeyReel was bitten by the "Celtic Music" bug as a teen in Uzbekistan and has never looked back. He works as a teacher, composer and performer. Susie first met KeyReel in that most modern of places, Facebook, on the recommendation of Alasdair Fraser. Susie and Calum are looking forward to bringing his fiddling prowess to RSCDS groups!

​

Our trio are also professional music teachers working in public schools in New York, Cambridge and Dallas.
