On Thursday 30 May there was a great battle on Islay but no-one was hurt. Indeed, many people were very happy about it. This was a special musical event where about 140 musicians recollected the battle of Traigh Gruineard. This was a battle between the MacDonalds of Islay and the MacLeans of Mull that took place in 1598. An Islay bard, William Livingstone, wrote a poem about the battle and last year Clare Jordan created music to accompany three pieces of this poem. This year, Clare wrote four more pieces to weave it all together; Raymond Lafferty made a film to accompany it; and Iseabail MacTaggart organised the musicians and singers. Children from all schools in Islay and Jura were involved with a wide range of music groups participating, including all the Gaelic choirs in Islay; Islay Pipe Band; Islay Brass Band; and traditional musicians from Islay and Jura. In addition, children from the Gaelic classes in Bowmore Primary School and Islay High School along with three adults read extracts from the poem. The whole event was recorded by Radio nan G\u00e0idheal and broadcast on the evening of Tuesday 4 June at 9.00pm. It was a very special evening and was thoroughly enjoyed by all who took part and all who witnessed it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
