A Ceilidh for Alice - Celtic Colours International Festival 2011

Friday, October 14th, 2011 at the Ceilidh for Alice concert at the 15th Celtic Colours International Festival, 2011 at Inverness Education Centre, Inverness, Cape Breton, NS. Video provided by liveonlinecanada -    / liveonlinecanada   Originally shot as part of a new initiative in 2011 that saw nine Celtic Colours shows live streamed to an audience around the world, a few of the many highlights from the streamed shows are being edited in high definition and released throughout the summer as we look forward to Celtic Colours 2012. Enjoy this finale moment from the 2011's A Ceilidh for Alice concert featuring some of the premier traditional musicians in the world - Ashley MacIsaac, Andrea Beaton, Rodney MacDonald, Robbie Fraser, Gillian Boucher, Glenn Graham, Dawn Beaton, Margie Beaton, Isaac Fraser, Douglas Cameron, Barbara MacDonald Magone, Joanne MacIntrye and Alice Freeman. Alice Freeman carried on a movement started by Maureen (Rankin) MacKenzie by having weekly summer ceilidhs at the Inverness Firehall featuring up and coming local talent. It became the first stage for many performers to get their feet wet and earn a little pocket change for those going on to university. At each ceilidh, all of the musicians would get together to open the ceilidh (usually with a set of jigs), and each would take their turn, at Alice's call. After the audience would learn and sing a Gaelic song under Alice's direction, all of the performers that evening would gather once again, pick some tunes and do the finale. This Celtic Colours concert was a living, loving tribute to the 20+ years these ceilidhs have existed and in true form, it was a typical finale number! Suas e!
