“Joy has done much to promote the Gaelic language on both sides of the Atlantic. This thoughtful and engaging album reminds us that she is above all a talented singer. Her voice has the clarity of a violin; her style is sincere and expressive.” – Dr Anne Lorne Gillies, Gaelic Ambassador 2010.
Dùsgadh (Awakening) is the debut release by Joy Dunlop, one of Argyll’s most prolific Gaelic singers. Featuring an eclectic array of musicians and drawing on a wide range of influences, the unique blend of pure, haunting vocals & luscious musical arrangements results in an exciting new album that explores and exhibits the rich Gaelic song tradition.
Fo Sgàil Beinn Chruachain – Taynuilt Gaelic Choir
A wonderfully varied programme of songs and tunes showcases the choir’s versatility on their first ever cd. Solos, duets and the full choir perform traditional and more recent songs including a Runrig track given a very different feel. Locally known as ‘A’ Chòisir Bheag Thoilichte’ (The Happy Wee Choir) they compete at the annual Royal National Mod and at various provincial mods throughout the year. Above all though, they sing for the sheer enjoyment and what better reason for singing could there be?
