FARA - The Orkney Series - Ep9

EPISODE 9 - Maggie Watson's Polka (Maggie Watson's Farewell To Blackhammer) Welcome to the ninth episode of The Orkney Series! Over the next few weeks, Jeana and Kristan will be travelling around the islands we're lucky enough to call home, having a blast of some Orcadian tunes and songs in the very places that inspired their names! We hope you’ll enjoy the journey along with us. We’re continuing our island adventures this week, and heading over to the home of one of Orkney’s very finest composers, Jim Craigie. Rousay has everything from brilliant musicians and composers, to all the historical sites you could wish to explore! We hope you'll enjoy a look round with us, and a massive thank you to everybody who made our visit possible - particularly Max Fletcher, who now lives at Jim's former home, Deithe. Max has a website dedicated to preserving Rousay's historical records, covering areas across the island. We thoroughly recommend checking it out at https://rousayremembered.com A few folk have been asking if they can support us in any way with this project... If you fancy donating to get us out to more of the isles, please feel free to do that on the link below, and we'll keep going as long as we can!! Many thanks to you all for watching! https://paypal.me/theorkneyseries?loc... We hope you enjoy Episode 8! FARA www.faramusic.co.uk
