FIRST HEARING:
Voice & Cello combine to bring to life the music collection of Margaret Fay Shaw that celebrates the area of North Glendale & South Lochboisdale on the island of Uist.
Our impression is that Margaret collected the songs from the 1930s until the time of her death, in 2004, aged 101 years, noting that some had changed in the interim period.
Mod Gold Medalist Paul McCallum's relaxed singing adds to the picture the words & music paint.
