Air d'Ecosse
The Catstrand in New Galloway hosted the launch of Anne’s second solo CD – Airs d’Ecosse. As Anne explained to the packed auditorium, the CD has been ten years in the making and contains a collection of pieces all of which have a strong connection with Scotland. During the hour long recital Anne played a number of works from the CD ranging from the ancient Scottish tune Ane Ground to Eddie McGuire’s Folk Memories of Summer which was written for Anne.
