Description
A powerful new album of pure and unaccompanied traditional Scottish Gaelic song by Christine Primrose widely recognised and acknowledged as one of the great singers of her generation. Laid bare and given space to breathe and speak the emotion and feeling in this work make a connection that transcends language. These are songs of love and loss presented in their most pure form; unaccompanied beautiful and vulnerable.
