In July Allan performed with his brother Iain as part of the Neil Johnstone Pipes and Strings. Pipes & Strings is an exciting project involving soloists Iain & Allan MacDonald, Roddy MacLeod, James Ross, Neil Johnstone and an 11-piece string orchestra. Project manager Rhona Johnstone describes Pipes & Strings as “a fusion between the traditional & classical music genres. What we are aiming to do is bring both these very different styles of music together and introduce audiences to something new.” The tour followed on from the release of the CD “Pipes & Strings – Suite for Alan” You can purchase this CD from Amazon by using the following link: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pipes-Strings-Suite-for-Alan/dp/B005OY8K4K/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1318520979&sr=8-1-fkmr0
