Gaelic Songs & Oral Tradition with Ali Coyle
Join me for a conversation about Gaelic Songs and the role of singing in oral tradition with Gaelic singer Ali Coyle (Alison Mhic Giolla Chomhgaill). As a Gaelic learner in Argyll, she has taken on the role of a tradition bearer, learning Gaelic songs and their stories. In this conversation, Ali shares how she got started with singing in Gaelic and how songs shape her relationship with Gaelic culture and history.
We talk about the role of singing in Gaelic oral tradition, the sheer variety of topics covered in Gaelic songs and how music relates to slowing down and travelling more responsibly.
Of course, Ali also sings us a song!
