Gaelic Song Night - the Storr
Anne Martin is from Trotternish in north Skye and spent last Autumn singing in all weathers for the extraordinary outdoor midnight event on the Storr. Tonight, along with clarsach player Ingrid Henderson, she presents those songs (inside!) to an audio-visual backdrop of images of the Storr. Ruth Lee Martin is a Scottish-born Australian composer, performer and academic of Scottish folk music. Ruth sings Gaelic mouth music learnt at her grandmother’s knee as well as her versions of Scottish and Irish ballads. She is joined by her band 'Eilean Mòr' with Jo Cresswell, Bill Grose, fiddle player Chris Stone and bass player Bill Williams. Special guest is Christine Primrose, from Lewis who has lived in Sleat for many years while working at the College. Tonight's young musician is Hannah Beaton, Gaelic singer, from Kyle.Date: 31/07/06
