Ceòl nam Fèis 2007 on tour across Scotland
20 June 2007

Around 50 young musicians from the fèisean will be going on tour around Scotland over four nights this June. Each concert will feature musicians from the ‘Cèilidh Trail’ groups across the Highlands, as well as fèis participants from the local fèisean in each area.

David Boag, Development Manager at Fèisean nan Gàidheal said, “This is the first time that we have taken Ceòl nam Fèis on tour, and out of the Highlands. The concerts offer a feast of some of Scotland’s finest young traditional musicians, and will be an exciting preview of the next generation of Gaelic musicians. Four great concerts and a tremendous way to highlight the work of the Fèis movement during this, the Scottish year of Highland Culture”.

The four Ceòl nam Fèis concerts will be held in Perth (27.06.07), Banchory (28.06.07), Glasgow (29.06.07) agus Edinburgh (30.06.07), with support from the Scottish Arts Council and Highlands & Islands Enterprise.  http://feisean.sitekit.net/ceolnamfeis

Airson a’ chiad turais a-riamh, thèid consartan Ceòl nam Fèis aig Fèisean nan Gàidheal a chumail taobh a-muigh na Gàidhealtachd.

Thèid ceithir consartan a chumail thairis air ceithir oidhcheannan aig deireadh an Ògmhios, le measgachadh de luchd-ciùil bho na Cèilidhean air Chuairt, cuide ri òigridh bho na Fèisean ionadail.

Bidh còrr is 50 neach-ciùil a’ gabhail pàirt anns gach consart, fo stiùir Nuala Cheanadaich. Airson blas ionadail a chur air gach consart, thèid cuireadh a-mach do gach Fèis a tha stèidhichte anns na sgìrean far am bi na consartan a’ gabhail àite, airson cothrom a thoirt dhaibhsan pàirt a ghabhail sna cuirmean-ciùil. Thuirt Dàibhidh Boag, Manaidsear Leasachaidh Fèisean nan Gàidheal, “Tha na cuirmean-ciùil seo a’ toirt dhuinn cothrom feadhainn den luchd-chiùil òga as fheàrr ann an Alba fhaicinn, agus bheir e sealladh dhuinn de ghinealach ùr luchd-ciùil na Gàidhlig. Ceithir consartan agus fìor dheagh chothrom airson obair nam Fèisean a chomharrachadh anns a bliadhna a’ chomharraicheas Alba cultur na Gàidhealtachd”

Thèid ceithir consartan Ceòl nam Fèis a chumail ann am Peairt (27.06.07), Beannchar (28.06.07), Glaschu (29.06.07) agus Dùn Èideann (30.06.07), le taic bho Chomhairle Ealain na h-Alba agus Iomairt na Gàidhealtachd ‘s nan Eilean.
