Nollaig Chridheil a Dun Eideann

Subhachas de laoidhean Nollaig à Dùn Èideann. A Christmas celebration of carols and readings from Greyfriars Kirk in Edinburgh

Subhachas Nollaig de laoidhean agus de leughaidhean à Eaglais nam Manach Liath ann an Dùn Èideann fo stiùir an Ro-Urramaich an Dr Aonghas Moireasdan. Bidh Ceòl Fèiseil air a lìbhrigeadh le Còisir Ghàidhlig Lodainn, Bun-sgoil Taobh na Pàirce agus Còisir Seòmair Acadamaidh Dhùn Èideann.

Tha am bard Marcas Mac an Tuairneir air dàn sònraichte a sgrìobhadh anns a bheil e a’ toirt dhuinn ìomhaigh den bhàrd Ghàidhlig, Donnchadh Bàn Mac an t-Saoir, a tha air a thiodhlacadh aig an Eaglais. Bidh tionndadh ciùil air leth air a lìbhrigeadh ann an Gàidhlig den dàn chliùiteach aige, Moladh Beinn Dòbhrain. Bidh clann à Bun-sgoil Taobh na Pàirce a’ toirt urram do Greyfriars Bobby le òran air ùr eadar-theangachadh den sgeulachd mun chù iomraiteach seo.

A Christmas celebration of carols and readings from Greyfriars Kirk in Edinburgh, led by the Very Rev Dr Angus Morrison. Festive Music will be provided by The Lothian Gaelic Choir with members of the Edinburgh Gaelic Choir, Bun-sgoil Taobh na Pàirce Choir and Edinburgh Academy Chamber Choir.

Poet Marcas Mac an Tuairneir has composed a special poem and will profile Gaelic poet Donnchadh Bàn Mac an t-Saoir, who is buried at the Kirk.
