Margaret Stewart from Lewis and Allan MacDonald from Glenuig are consummate performers who are steeped in Gaelic traditional music. Colla mo Rùn provides the confirmation that together their diverse talents blend deliciously and subtly. Their's is one of those happy combinations where the sum is greater than its considerably gifted constituent parts. In Colla mo Rùn this combination is enriched by the diverse talents of Ingrid Henderson, Rona Lightfoot, Malcolm Stitt, Iain Macdonald, Iain MacFarlane, James Macintosh and Allan Henderson whose accompaniment graces many of its tracks. Purchase Colla mo Rùn from Amazon.co.uk. Margaret and Allan's debut CD, Fhuair mi Pòg received many plaudits such as "an unexpected gem", "a low-key, beautiful disc", "state of the art Gaelic songs and piping". For those who were enthralled and uplifted by Fhuair mi Pòg and wondered whether their next CD could possibly match its quality, the good news is that in Colla Mo Rùn their expectations will be exceeded. Purchase Fhuair mi Pòg from Amazon.co.uk.
Colla mo Rùn features many previously unheard and original compositions by Allan together with beautiful traditional Gaelic songs delivered with Margaret's pristine intonation and in that delightful melismatic style which characterises her singing. It is a CD which exudes Gaelic tradition and comes straight from the heart. Contacts:-
