Little Bird Blown off Course, ALittle Bird Blown off Course, A
Synopsis:
Margaret Fay Shaw was one of the most notable and important collectors of authentic Scottish Gaelic song in the 20th century, even though her name may not be well-known outside of traditional music circles. Lifting extracts from Margarets autobiography, letters, personal photography and previously unseen film footage of island life, A Little Bird Blown off Course casts fresh light on the importance of this collection to Gaelic culture past and present, and examine the role new Gaelic speakers play in reinvigorating the language. The production features live music and song, including extracts from the Gaelic song collection that Margaret and John created and preserved and that form the rich legacy they have bequeathed to Scotland.
