Book Synopsis The Highland Bagpipe by : Joshua Dickson
Download or read book The Highland Bagpipe written by Joshua Dickson and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2009 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Highland bagpipe, widely considered 'Scotland's national instrument', is one of the most recognized icons of traditional music in the world. It is also among the least understood. However, since the bagpipeOCOs unprecedented surge in public visibility and scholarly attention since the 1990s, a greater interest in the emic has led the consideration of both the globalization of Highland piping and piping as rooted in local culture. The contributors of this collection discuss the bagpipe in oral and written history, anthropology, ethnography, musicology, material culture and modal aesthetics. The book will appeal to ethnomusicologists, anthropologists, as well as those interested in international bagpipe studies and traditions."
Download or read book Hebridean Island written by Angus Duncan and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Island of Scarp lies off the west coast of North Harris in the Outer Hebrides and was populated for more than 400 years until 1971, when the last of the native population left. This account of Scarp describes an island community and a way of life now all but forgotten, including the harvests of the land and the sea; children's games and pastimes; long traditional folktales told around the peat-fire; social customs and occasions; and some of the notable characters of the day. It fills a long-felt gap, for the story of Scarp - unlike its westerly neighbour St. Kilda - has not been told in this way before."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Three Wolves written by David McQuain and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2020-09-16 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first consolidated work that contains the entire ancestral tree of the American McQuains dating back to their Scottish progenitor, Alexander McQuain. Pictures, records, and stories of this prerevolutionary family, as they dwelled in America, are now recorded forever for future generations. This book also discusses the Gaelic origins of the McQuain line based on a multitude of sources concerning Irish and Scottish history. These sources seem to point back to Irish high kings, Norse influence, and the Scottish Highlands. McQuain men possess haplogroup DNA that points back to the high kings of Ireland and the name MacCuinn. These MacCuinns are recorded as moving into Scotland as MacQueens. Once in Scotland, the MacQueens are documented as possessing lands in the Isle of Skye and Inverness. The name, McQuain, is recorded in birth records in both of these places. This book contains ancient stories about these distant ancestors.
