Comhdail Cholm Cille

Sunday 18 September 2005, 6.10pm, STV & GTV
This week’s Gaelic song and music programme, Comhdail Cholm Cille features Liam O’Maonlai of Hot House Flowers with Kathleen MacInnes. The series was filmed in a beautiful old farm steading converted into a small concert/studio space at Strathgarry House near Killiecrankie in the Perthshire Highlands. Top vocal and instrumental exponents of the two traditions were invited to rehearse and play together with no audience except themselves and a “resident” house-band of their peers and with Mary Ann Kennedy as informal host, celebrating the historical and contemporary links between Scottish and Irish Gaelic. The series was produced by Pelicula Films and funded by Seirbheis nam Meadhanan Gàidhlig, with special financial assistance from Iomairt Cholm Cille.
