Gaelic song and the MacArthurs of Newfoundland.

Gaelic song and the MacArthurs of Newfoundland.

Margaret Bennett returns to her home island of Skye, with a party of MacArthurs from Newfoundland, where Margaret also once lived. The MacArthurs emigrated from the nearby Island of Canna in the mid 19th Century, first to Cape Breton and then on to Newfoundland. Their descendants are on their way back for a Canna Homecoming and call in on Skye to bring us their songs and music. There will also be Gaelic songs from Margaret herself, and from Christine Primrose who is tutoring one the Gaelic College's Summer Song Courses this week.
