A & B

Aidan has a wide experience of playing music of many different kinds, from Pop through Folk to Classical. He has led orchestras, conducted musical productions, appeared and played on Top of the Pops and TFI Friday, and has appeared in Shakespeare in Love and the renowned film Pride & Prejudice! His rhythmic playing for Country Dancing together with his ability to extemporize at will makes for many memorable moments when he and Brian are playing.

Brian is an extraordinarily gifted pianist and musician, who plays full-time for Scottish Ballet, both as Company Pianist and in the Orchestra. He is the regular accompanist for Terry Neason in her one woman shows, which they have performed together as far apart as the Edinburgh Festival, the Lyric Hammersmith, Athens and Vancouver. He is composer, arranger and keyboard player extraordinary for Terry.

Apart from playing piano for the ‘Assembly Players’ and ‘A&B’s country dance engagements, he plays keyboard for their Ceilidhs. He has also engineered, edited and mastered all but two of The Assembly Players recordings and developed and maintained both websites, nicolasbroadbridge.com and theassemblyplayers.com.

‘A & B’ are still performing as a duo and there are plans to release new rexordings in the near future !
