A familiar figure around the West End, Eddie McGuire is one of Scotland’s most well known composers. Also a well-known traditional musician (Eddie is a member of trad group The Whistlebinkies), he has written music that has been performed by all of Scotland’s major orchestras and ensembles, as well as by internationally known figures including Yehudi Menuhin.
