of the Gael by The Rev. KENNETH MACLEOD , of Gigha, with musical illustrations by HUGH MACKAY (tenor)
Dr. Kenneth Macleod is the minister of Gigha. He will be remembered for his famous collaboration with the late Mrs. Kennedy-Fraser in collecting and publishing the ' Songs of the Hebrides '. He is a Gaelic enthusiast with a modest disposition, who gets little recognition for all the work he has done to preserve the vanishing music of the Western Isles. He was last heard in the Scottish programme in January, 1934. Hugh Mackay has been associated with Dr. Macleod for a long time in popularising Hebridean songs. He is popular throughout the country for his work with the Arts League of Service.
