Music interview: Moshen Amini on performing with Talisk and Ímar and the importance of the Scots Trad Music Awards

Mohsen Amini is no stranger to music award ceremonies. At 25, the Glasgow-based concertina virtuoso, who plays in the trio Talisk and the quintet Ímar, has a sizeable clutch of folk gongs to his credit. During 2016 alone he was nominated as Instrumentalist of the Year in the MG Alba Scots Trad Music Awards, became Musician of the Year in the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards and won the Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician of the Year competition.
