Cèilidh a Bhaile Mhòr

About Cèilidh a Bhaile Mhòr

Tadhailibh oirnn san Ionad Phìobaireachd airson beagan òrain, sgeulachdan agus beul-aithris Gàidhlig a chluinntinn mu eachdraidh Ghlaschu mar a bha, a tha agus a bhios san àm ri teachd. Le cèilidh traidiseanta a’ toirt aoigheachd do dh’àireamh de luchd-ealain aithnichte Gàidhlig, tha sinn a’ comharrachadh an eòlais cho-roinnte is choitcheann an làthair aig cridhe a’ chèilidh. Cho math ri gnìomhadh air àrd-ùrlar agus beagan dannsa, tha sibh làn di-beathte òran a ghabhail cuideachd, mar a thuirt Seumas MacEunraig nach maireann, nach eil e dìreach mu na h-òrain fhèin – ged a tha iad cudromach – ach mu dheidhinn a bhith gan seinn còmhla.

Bidh an tachartas seo sa mhòr-chuid ann an Gàidhlig, ach bidh fàilte romhaibh uile.

A traditional Gaelic cèilidh gathering with a host of well-known Gaelic artists - we celebrate the shared and common experience of the lived moment of the cèilidh. Along with performance, and a wee bit of dancing you are invited to gabh orain too, as Hamish Henderson asserted It not just about the songs themselves – although these were of course important – but it’s about the singing of them together.

This event will mostly be in Gaelic but all are welcome.
