Performing
As a duet with his wife, Irena, Lindsay performs at classical music festivals across Europe and has also been to Venezuela. As a trio with harp and soprano (Katarzyna Wiwer-Monita) they form ‘Celtic Triangle’ and have a mixture of music from traditional, to contemporary compositions by Lindsay. He leads a traditional music group, The Reivers, comprising bagpipes, harp, violin and percussion, and again they have a mixture of traditional and new music.
A major part of Lindsay’s work is performing with ‘classical’ ensembles ranging from string quartet to orchestras. He has played with some of the most prestigious orchestras in Europe, such as Amadeus Chamber Orchestra of Polish Radio led by Agnieszka Duczmal, and Leopolis Chamber Orchestra of Lviv, where he was a resident soloist.
Lindsay performs on Highland Bagpipes, Scottish smallpipes and Border pipes during his concerts.

Famous quotes containing the word performing:
“And no one, it seemed, had had the presence of mind
To initiate proceedings or stop the wheel
From the number it was backing away from as it stopped:
It was performing prettily; the puncture stayed unseen....”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Bottom. What is Pyramus? A lover or a tyrant?
Quince. A lover that kills himself, most gallant, for love.
Bottom. That will ask some tears in the true performing of it. If I do it, let the audience look to their eyes.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“More than in any other performing arts the lack of respect for acting seems to spring from the fact that every layman considers himself a valid critic.”
—Uta Hagen (b. 1919)
