The March celebrates the history of Shetland, which is featured at this year's hybrid Music Festival . Two specially-commissioned shows are being staged to highlight the islands' " unique Cultural History and identity".
The Festival began This Week in Glasgow and will run until 6 February. Performances will now be shown online with some screened to smaller audiences at Glasgow's Royal Concert Hall.
A small number of larger-scale shows after shows had to be cancelled due to Covid restrictions on crowds.
Last Year 's Celtic Connections was also forced to go online due to the pandemic.
