Concert with Dr Angus MacDonald at Glenuig Hall
BLAS 2023: Angus MacDonald at 70
A special evening to celebrate Dr Angus MacDonald, one of the renowned MacDonald piping brothers from Glenuig, turning 70.
With “We’re a Case, the Bunch of Us...” featuring Allan McDonald, Iain MacFarlane, Finlay MacDonald, Ali Hutton and Leonard Barry, plus other guests Allan Og MacDonald, Iain MacDonald, Kirsteen MacDonald and Niall Macdonald.
Dr Angus has competed and won many accolades for his piping: the Silver Chanter, gold medals in Oban, Inverness and in Canada, and the Inverness Clasp at the Northern Meeting amongst them. He and his brothers have developed their own unique style of piping over the years, drawing on their individual interests.
Dr Angus was instrumental in helping to establish the first ever Fèis in 1981, Fèis Bharraigh, before moving to Cape Breton where he spent 11 years. Since his return, he has made his home in the Isle of Skye with his wife and two children, where he was a GP in the community for many years.
