Bùthan-Obrach air Òrain Ghàidhlig
Àite sònraichte do dheugairean aig am bheil Gàidhlig – cothrom òrain ionnsachadh agus stòr de dh’òrain Ghàidhlig a chruinneachadh.
Bidh a’ bhùth-obrach fo stiùir an t-seinndeadair cliùiteach, Maighread Stiùbhart, à Leòdhas. Tha a’ Gàidhlig aice bhon ghlùin agus tha eòlas farsaing aice air òrain Ghàidhlig, nòsan seinn agus an eachdraidh air cùl nan òrain. Tha i air Bonn Òir a’ Chomuinn a choisinn agus air a gabhail a-steach do Thalla Cliù Ceòl Dùthchasach na h-Alba. Mar sin tha iomadh bliadhna de eòlas aice mar sheinneadair, neach-rannsachaidh agus mar oide.
Tro bhith ‘g ionnsachadh òrain, a’ còmhradh agus ag èisteachd còmhla, gheibh an luchd-com-pàirt misneachd ann a bhith seinn òrain Ghàidhlig agus togaidh iad stòr de dh’òrain a dh’fhaodas iad a sheinn leotha fhèin, ann an còmhlann, aig cèilidhean no ann an cruinneachaidhean neo-fhoirmeil. Bidh an dòigh teagasg com-pàirteachail agus ann an riochd bùth-obrach a bhios a’ cumail taic ri leasachadh ciùil, misneachd sa chànain agus mothachadh cultarail.
‘S e cothrom prìseil a tha seo do dh’òigridh aig am bheil Gàidhlig a bhith tighinn còmhla agus ag ionnsachadh bho Mhaighread fhèin, ann an suidheachadh càirdeil a bheir dhaibh ceangal nas làidir don an dualchas ciùil aca.
Gaelic Song Workshop for Young People
A dedicated space for teenage Gaelic speakers to learn and build a collection of Gaelic songs.
Led by award-winning singer Margaret Stewart, a native Gaelic speaker from the Isle of Lewis, the workshop draws on her deep knowledge of Gaelic song, extensive repertoire, and understanding of its cultural and historical context. A Mòd Gold Medallist, and Scots Trad Music Hall of Fame inductee, Margaret brings decades of experience as a performer, researcher and tutor.
Through song learning, conversation, and shared listening, participants will grow in confidence in Gaelic singing and build a collection of songs for solo performance, ensembles, cèilidhs, or informal sessions. Sessions will take a participatory, workshop-style approach, supporting musical development, language confidence, and cultural awareness.
This is a rare opportunity for young Gaelic speakers to learn directly from Margaret herself, and to connect with their musical heritage in a supportive peer environment.
Suitable for age 13+
We can make tickets available free of charge for children who would benefit from this opportunity, but for whom cost would be a barrier. Contact moira@anlanntair.com for details.
