    I already posted this comment on another version of this song (slightly tweaked version here), but this is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. As some others indicated, the performance is absolutely mesmerizing. There’s so much feeling in the vocals and the tune itself. The song is beautiful regardless, but one thing I like is the way you alternate doing lead and harmony. You both have beautiful voices but with different qualities, and they’re great together. Thank you so much.

      to be honest, we are not quite sure. We learned this song from our friend Timothy Hull, I think we should ask him! Looking at the map I assume it's Cuillin (/Coolin)?

    • @johnjamieson7087
      @johnjamieson7087 4 месяца назад +1

      Hugh Roberton wrote this song for one of the Glasgow choirs about two decades after the evacuation of the islanders from Mingulay. The Minch is the channel between the northern Western Isles of Scotland and the mainland and Isle of Skye. The Cuilin is the prominent mountain range on the Isle of Skye. Roberton is using poetic licence to refer to "The Straits of Cuilin".
      Mingulay lies to the southern end of the Western Isles, beyond the UIsts, Ersikay, Barra and Vatersay. The islands are beautiful and well worth visiting.
      This rendition of Roberton's song is particularly beautiful.
