Joy Dunlop heads to New York City to host the first ever New York M貌d. As part of the 25th New York Tartan Week celebration, Trusadh joins the Scottish diaspora of this iconic city to celebrate links to Scotland with thousands of pipers and Highland dancers taking the Manhattan streets by tartan storm. There are Gaelic singers in the mix too, from all over the USA and also Scotland.
We follow Joy, An Comunn G脿idhealach and the Tartan Week team in the build-up to the M貌d event - which includes workshops, f猫is style events and c猫ilidh sessions. We meet some of the colourful characters who are entering this Gaelic Song Contest - such as Pamela Jean Agaloos from Queens who sings Oran Chaluim Sg脿ire with passion having been taught by Christine Primrose! Or John Grimaldi who is legendary in Scottish circles in the USA and sings in an all-male ensemble called Na h-Eileanaich (well he does live in Manhattan Island, and his fellow singers live in Staton Island!) Other entrants are travelling from Utah, Virginia and Washington DC. There is even a Glaswegian entrant flying the flag for Scotland!
大象传媒 ALBA follows a momentous moment in Gaelic music's legacy and it is hoped that this becomes a 'must attend' event in the future for indigenous 鈥楳oddies鈥� and USA-based language aficionados alike! The winner of the first ever New York Tartan Week Mod is going to be Gaelic's newest superstar 鈥� tune in to find out who that will be!
