Gloomy Winters Noo Awa', Tannahill Weavers

Gloomy Winters Noo Awa', performed by the Tannahill Weavers (www.tannahillweavers.com). In concert at the Institute of Musical Traditions (www.imtfolk.org) Concert, Rockville MD, USA on February 7, 2011.

The Tannahill Weavers' diverse repertoire reflects the duality of Scotland's musical heritage It embraces both the mystical quality of the Highlander's Celtic music, and the rollicking, sometimes even brawling qualities of the Lowlander's Anglo-Scot tunes. The Tannahill Weavers' arrangements blend the beauty of the traditional melodies with the power of modern rhythms. The penetrating sound of the Highland bagpipes is a thread of ancient memory running through it all.

As always, we gratefully thank the Maryland State Arts Council (www.msac.org), the Montgomery County Arts & Humanities Council (www.creativemoco.com), and all our other donors, supporters, and volunteers.

Sound: Art Isaacs, Dave Eisner, Ben Majchrzak
