Feasgar 脿lainn Foghair agus bha talla Bh脿gh a鈥� Chaisteil luma-lan de mhuinntir an 脿ite, c脿irdean, caraidean is luchd-e貌lais 鈥榮 iad air cruinneachadh c貌mhla airson urram a thoirt do sh脿r sheinneadair as an eilein aca fh猫in a bha air aois s貌nraichte a鈥� ruighinn. Mar ph脿irt do dh鈥檉h猫is Bhlas 2019 chaidh cuirm s貌nraichte a chur air d貌igh ann am Barraigh a鈥� comharrachadh gu bheil Criosaidh Mary neo Criosaidh Denny air aois an ceithir fichead a鈥� ruighinn鈥�..agus abair gun d鈥檉huair I preusant, cothrom taghadh a鈥� dh猫anamh do sheinneadairean is luchd ci霉il a ghabhadh p脿irt anns a chuirm aice. Agus bha sinne aig 大象传媒 Radio nan Gaidheal air leth toilichte cuairt a ghabhail a Bharraigh airson cl脿radh a鈥� dheanamh den oidhche. Abair oidhche gu dearbha, chan fhaca muinntir Bharraigh ceilidh dha leithid airson iomadach bliadhna.

A鈥� measg na seinneadairean is luchd ci霉il a rinn an turas a Bharraigh agus a bha ri 'n cluinntinn air an oidhche bha na corragan sgileil aig Ailean D貌mhnallach air a ph矛ob, na guthan seinn air leth aig M脿iri Anna NicUalraig agus Alasdair MacIlleBh脿in, agus bha an 鈥淐eilidh King鈥� e fh猫in Fergie D貌mhnallach sa chomhlan a鈥� cumail ceol dannsa ris na bha l脿thair. Ann an eilean a tha l脿n t脿lantan a thaobh seinn bha 貌rain rin cluinntinn bho E脿irdsidh MacIlleathain, Karen Elder, Calum 脪g MacN猫ill agus gun d矛ochuimhn鈥� a鈥� dh猫anamh air Coisir Gh脿idhlig Bharraigh. A鈥� cumail smachd air an oidhche bha fear de bhalaich a bhaile aig Criosaidh fh猫in, 脿 E貌laigearraidh D貌mhnall Manford.

On a beautiful Saturday evening in November the Barraich were out in full force as they came together in Castlebay Hall to celebrate the 80th birthday of one of Barra鈥檚 finest singers and tradition bearers, Chrissie Mary MacNeil (Chrissie Denny.) As part of this year鈥檚 Blas festival Chrissie Denny鈥檚 special birthday was celebrated with a host of singers and musicians chosen by Chrissie herself. From the skilful piping of Allan MacDonald; the talented singing voices of Maryann Kennedy and Alasdair Whyte ; the dancing fingers of Fergie MacDonald on the box; the talented voices of the locals of C貌isir Bharraigh; along with Archie Maclean , Karen Elder and young Calum MacNeil, a fantastic night was held in Castlebay. From Chrissie's own village Donald Manford did the honourable duties of MC for the evening.
