Concert: ‘Dannsa’ and ‘Amh’

A celebration of the old and the new traditional dance and music. 'Dannsa' are Caroline Reagh, Sandra Robertson, Mats Melin and Frank McConnell. They have been blazing a trail for traditional dance for five years now and bring their dances alive with musicians Fin Moore, pipes, Mary Ann Kennedy, clarsach and Gaelic song, and Karen Steven, fiddle. "ach dèan dannsa dèan dannsa 's e obair th'ann a bhith dannsa." (from a poem by Aonghas Dubh) ‘Amh’ ('raw' in Gaelic) offer a breath-taking performance. Andrew Robertson and Iseabail MacTaggart (2004 Mod Gold Medal winner) sing Gaelic songs in a unique and contemporary style, with Calum MacCrimmon, piper and musician. Christina and Alpin Stewart will also lead some ‘waulking songs’.
