Rubha Nam Marbh by Duncan Chisholm

Go to → Duncan Chisholm
The translation of 'Rubha nam Marbh' is 'The Headland of the Dead' and can be found on the Monach Isles in the Outer Hebrides. This beautiful air was written by my friend Éamon Doorley, an outstanding Irish musician and producer. The tune originally appeared in a multi-media commission piece produced by Julie Fowlis entitled 'Heisgeir'. I fell in love with the tune immediately for its simplistic beauty and its ability to take your breath away. The track is performed live on this clip, accompanied by a core traditional band and a string / brass ensemble."
