Jo NicDhòmhnaill a' taghadh òrain is cainnt às na Hearadh a nochd ann an Tocher. Marking 40 years since Tocher was launched Jo MacDonald selects items from her native Harris.

'S e Sgoil Eòlais na h-Alba aig Oilthigh Dhùn-Èidinn a tha air a bhith foillseachadh Tocher thairis air an dà fhichead bliadhna a chaidh seachad. Iris a tha seo a tha làn òrain, sheanchasan, cèol, rannan is eile air an sgrìobhadh bhon stòras a tha Sgoil Eòlais na h-Alba air a chlàradh air teip. Tha Jo NicDhòmhnaill a' taghadh cainnt bho thriùir à Scalpaigh a tha a' nochdadh ann a Tocher - Tormod MacLeòid, Coinneach MacLeòid is Calum MacSuain. Tha cainnt is seanchas aice cuideachd bho Churstaidh Sheadha is Peigi Mhoireasdan. 

The School of Scottish Studies from Edinburgh University has published Tocher for the last 40 years. The journal contains songs, stories, music, customs, beliefs, local history, rhymes and riddles transcribed from tapes held in the sound archive. Jo MacDonald has chosen material from Scalpay from Norman MacLeod, Kenneth MacLeod and Calum MacSween and also selected material from Christina Shaw and her sister, Peggy Morrison.

Èist ri naidheachdan, còmhradh, ceòl agus spòrs gach là, moch gu anmoch.
