MacGregor of Rora, Port an Righ, Malcolm the Tailor and The
Primrose Girl traditional, arranged
by the Tannahill Weavers.
Bogallan by G.S. MacClennan
This set starts with two tunes from Ross's
Collection of 1885. The first tune, McGregor of Rora, is
written as a march but played here as a slow air. The next two tunes, Port
an Righ and Bogallan, are reels in the pipe tradition, but are played
here as slow reels. Bogallan comes from the G. S. MacLennan
Collection. Then comes Malcom the Tailor -- again this is a
reel from the piping tradition, played here firstly as a jig. This is
followed by the reel version of this tune, which comes from John
MacFadyen's Book I. The set finishes with another reel, again from Ross's
Collection of 1885, called The Primrose Girl. |
