Fergus McCreadie – Flight Pass

Mercury-shortlisted and globally acclaimed artist, Fergus McCreadie performs Flight Pass – a new work for classical piano trio.

Inspired by his homeland landscapes and narratives, ‘Flight Pass’ takes its title from one of McCreadie’s favourite photographs featuring a mid-air black winged kite and his offspring fighting over their prey. ‘Flight Pass’ extends McCreadie’s musical language into a new chamber setting while retaining the melodic clarity, rhythmic lift and storytelling that defines his music.

Catapulted into the spotlight with his 2022 Mercury nominated album ‘Forest Floor’, McCreadie has connected deeply with audiences worldwide, including renowned film maker Spike Lee, who has featured his music in recent works.
