大象传媒

Robbie Shepherd invites you into the Celtic Zone, for great live sessions from the 大象传媒 archive alongside fascinating feature programmes.

There's regal splendour, as Gary West finds out about Queen Victoria's visit to Taymouth Castle, in Pipeline. In Scotland's Music, John Purser takes us to Doune Castle in Perthshire, where he discovers Queen Margaret's love of a good tune. Archive session tracks come courtesy of Breabach and the Stobo Village Band, and left-handed Highland fiddler Aonghus Grant is Bruce MacGregor's guest in Strings and Things. Also, in Musical Genes, folklorist Margaret Bennett talks to Tom Morton about the life and musical legacy of her son, visionary piper and music producer, the late Martyn Bennett.
