FIRST HEARING:
Part Gaelic, part in English and a touch more than being in the oral tradition.
The accompaniment comes from her pupils, students at The Royal Scottish Academy of Music & Drama.
This first track is with a simple piano, the second is one of those jolly waulking songs complete with the necessary chorus.
Certainly one for the fans, certainly one for the collectors.
Have a wee listen.
