Mhàrtainn. Orain an
Eilein. An t-Eilean Sgitheanach :
Taigh na Teud, 2001. 132dd. A collection of 156 Skye songs with both words and
music. The songs are from composers
known and unknown and range from older, traditional material to the work of
modern poets and village bards. In
terms of the number of individual songs, 156, this is the largest collection
of Skye songs which I can recall seeing in print. The range and size of the collection, and
the fact that it contains much material never published before, gives it its
particular value. One would have
wished for more extensive notes and bibliographical references: with these
this work would have been more valuable still and it would have helped the
reader in deciding whether his or her own criteria for a Skye provenance
coincided with those of the compiler.
I have not here followed my usual practice of
listing all the items in a collection under the heading of that
collection. The size of this
collection would have made it impractical and instead I have listed
individual items in the main sequences of this bibliography. While I have listed in this way the
majority of items in this collection there are some omissions: some items
which are easily available in other collections and some items of whose Skye
provenance I was not sure. |
