BBC Radio Ulster - Kintra, An Ulster-Scots tour of the Maiden City, poetry online, meeting a player of small pipes and great memories inspired by music.

Music for the small pipes, an Ulster-Scots tour for visitors, and poetry moving online.

Helen Mark’s been to find out about a new tour of the Maiden City with an Ulster-Scots focus.  Rab Lennox visits a fellow musician to find out about the small pipes – though the whistles get an airing too!  Jonnie Crawford hears about a University collaboration that’s sharing their Ulster-Scots poetry collections online and brings it to the curriculum for English students and we also hear about Jonnie’s hairt-sang – a long remembered tune that brings him many good memories.      
The team loves to hear from listeners – so why not get in touch to tell them about the Ulster-Scots events
