Ann an sreath ùr, Cuimhneachan, cluinnear taghadh den bheartas òrain agus bhàrdachd Ghàidhlig a chaidh a dhèanamh mun Chiad Chogadh. Bidh Art MacCarmaig, Linda NicLeòid, Murchadh Dòmhnallach agus Raibeart MacDhonnchaidh a' seinn taghadh de na h-òrain sin agus cluinnidh sinn cuideachd mu na sgeulachdan air cùlaibh cuid de na dàin.

Anns a' phrògram mu dheireadh dhen t-sreath bidh sùil ga thoirt air dìleab a' Chogaidh Mhòir tro shùilean nam bàrd a bha a' sgrìobhadh anns na bliadhnaichean às a dhèidh.

Bha dùil gun cuireadh a' Chiad Chogadh crioch air a h-uile cogadh ach cha do chuir agus tha cuid de bhàird a' ceasnachadh de cho feumail sa tha cogadh san fharsuingeachd. Ach aig a' cheart àm thathar mothachail air cho cudthromach sa tha e nach tèid ìobairt nan saighdearan a chaidh a shabaid a dhìchuimhneachadh.

Series featuring a selection from the wealth of Gaelic song and poetry written about the First World War. The series features specially recorded performances by four of Scotland's finest Gaelic singers - Art Cormack, Linda MacLeod, Murdo MacDonald and Robert Robertson - as well as readings from both songs and poems.

The final programme looks at the legacy of the war through the eyes of the bards who were writing in the years after it had ended. It was thought that the war would be 'the war to end all wars', but that wasn't the case, and that realisation led many poets such as Murdo MacFarlane to question the effectiveness of war in general. However, at the same time, it is realised that the sacrifice of those who went into battle should never be forgotten. Show less
