Special Celtic Connections concert featuring some of the best contemporary Gaelic singers.

First of two special Celtic Connections concerts featuring some of the best contemporary Gaelic singers performing with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.

Ann an pàirteachas gun samhail, tha Fèis Celtic Connection a' dèanamh taisbeanadh air leth de dh'òrain Ghàidhlig anns am faicear 's an cluinnear sàr sheinneadairean an dualchais air àrd-ùrlar. Nam measg sin bidh Julie Fowlis, Karen NicMhathain, Kathleen NicAonghais, Griogair Labhruidh, Gillebrìde Mac'IlleMhaoil, Na Peathraichean NicCoinnich, Art MacCarmaig, Raibeart Robasdan, Iseabail Anna Mhàrtainn, Kim Carnie agus Mischa Nic a Phearsain. Mar phàirt de chuirm shònraichte a chruthaicheas dìleab luachmhor, bidh iad uile a' taisbeanadh an roghainn-òran aca fhèin 's sin air a bhith air a dheasachadh as ùr airson, agus le taic bho, Orcastra a BHBC ann an Alba. Bidh Julie Fowlis ag aithris agus a' tarraing ri chèile agallamhan bho na seinneadairean eile agus luchd-eagrachaidh an tachartais.

The Celtic Connections festival is producing a unique showcase of the Gaelic song tradition in an unprecedented collaboration, which sees the creme de la creme of contemporary Gaelic singers, including Julie Fowlis, Karen Matheson, Kathleen MacInnes, Griogair Labhruidh, Gillebrìde MacMillan, The MacKenzie Sisters, Arthur Cormack, Robert Robertson, Isobel Ann Martin, Kim Carnie and Mischa Macpherson all performing amid brand new orchestral arrangements of their chosen material, played by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra.

The concert creates its own legacy and extends the musical form in a new way. Narrated by Julie Fowlis, the programme features contributions from the singers and organisers.
