Angus MacLeod — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 13:39:39 +0000

Tha Mìos na Gàidhlig a' tighinn dlùth ann an Alba Nuaidh. 'S e sin mìos 'nuair a nìthear greadhnachas ann an iomadh dòigh air sgàth na Gàidhlig, staid na Gàidhlig mar a tha e an diugh agus a h-uile h-oidhirp a chaidh a dheanamh air a son ré nam bliadhnaichean.

Na Daoine Bho 'n d' Thàinig Sinn / The People From Whom We Came

Angus MacLeod — Thu, 03 Jan 2013 12:52:05 +0000

Nach neònach mar a thig air uairean co-chruinneachadh de thachartan a chuireas smaointean duine air rathad àraid? 'Sann mar sin a tha e air a bhith dhomhsa o chionn ghreis.

Lumière: Contemporary Art . Unconventional Spaces

Jody MacArthur — Thu, 20 Sep 2012 17:15:47 +0000

Next week for the second year in a row, Cape Breton will be the scene of some spectacular arts and culture. Now... arts and culture certainly aren't new to Cape Breton since we're known all over the world for our art, culture and music... but Lumière puts a whole new spin on things!

An Drochaid Eadarainn / The Bridge Between Us

Angus MacLeod — Thu, 02 Aug 2012 13:00:39 +0000

Bho chionn ghreis chaidh làrach-lìn ùr a chuir air an eadarlìon, An Drochaid Eadarainn mar ainm. 'S e proiseact mór a tha seo, le fios air iomadh cuspair ceangailte ri dualchas Gàidhealach an Eilein Cheap Breatainn, ceòl 'is dannsa 's msaa. Cha b' urrainn dhomh ceartas a dheanamh dha 'n làrach lìn uile gu léir agus air sgàth gur i a' Ghàidhlig 'na prìomh ùigh a th' agamsa ann, cumaidh mi ris a' roinn sin dheth.

CO-CHEANGLAIDHEAN / CONNECTIONS

Angus MacLeod — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 11:43:48 +0000

O chionn ghreis chuir mi seachad dà latha ri teagasg òrain Ghàidhlig do chloinn aig An Roinn Cheilteach de 'n Sgoil Dhannsaidh aig Ceallaigh Nic Artair ann an Cnoc an Iar, Ceap Breatainn. 'S e dannsairean a bh' anns a' mhór-chuid dhe na sgoilearan agus bha 'ad air an togail le bhith dannsadh do sheinn seach inneal ciùil. Rinneadh co-cheangladh glan eadar cànan 'is ceòl 'is dannsa, agus a' chlann 'gan ionnsachadh uile.

Hidden Wealths

Wed, 24 Aug 2011 01:52:55 +0000

Culture, and specifically language, takes ownership in those select few who are what I refer to as that culture’s hidden wealths. There is a time in life for everyone, where, when you are ready, you begin to (coincidentally...?) unearth these fantastic discoveries in life.

A Summer Highlight - Highland Village Day

Celtic Heart — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 13:57:33 +0000

Although it is early to say for sure what the finest musical highlights will be on Cape Breton Island this summer, there is one concert that is guaranteed to be especially enjoyable because not only the music, but the view, is second to none in the world!
