Bothan Dhùn Èideann
May Session
(Fri 23 May: 7pm)
’S e Mòd ionadail Dhùn Èideann a th’ ann agus aig Bothan tha sinn a’ cur fàilte air Fiona J NicChoinnich, a bhios a’ bruidhinn mun leabhar ùr aice mu bheatha iongantach Mhargaret Fay Shaw (a rugadh ann an Ameireagaidh, a bha a’ fuireach air Eilean Chanaidh). Leis gun robh Fiona ag obair ann an Taigh Chanaidh, tha sealladh iongantach aice air MFS, a bha cuideachd na neach-rannsachaidh agus a rinn an leabhar buadhmhor ‘Folksongs and Folklore of South Uist’ (1955). Bidh Fiona a’ bruidhinn, a’ seinn agus a’ sealltainn ìomhaighean agus chlàraidhean. Bidh caraidean Bothan a’ tighinn cuideachd agus tha fàilte air buill Bothan seinn/cluich ceòl (leig fios dhuinn).
Come to Bothan this month to hear Fiona J MacKenzie give a presentation about her new book, full of insights about Margaret Fay Shaw. This Gaelic book launch will of course feature singing, music and maybe some poetry from others too! Please note that this is a Gaelic language event, with only specific extracts from the book in English.
