From across the Highland moors... the haunting wail of fiddle and bagpipe. Into the castle drawing rooms... the elegant chamber sound of viola and cello. And out in the village squares... lively country dances with hammered dulcimer and guitar. Celebrate the many moods of a Scottish Yuletide holiday, with this 1996 release from Maggie, Bonnie and Al, plus guest artists Abby Newton and Eric Rigler (the piper from the film Braveheart). Highlights include Shetland country dance tunes Christmas Day I'Da Moornin, Bottom of the Punch Bowl, and Ale Is Dear... as well as other favorites performed with Scottish flair.
