Duncan MacRae of Kintail’s Lament – Piobaireachd by Jim McGillivray | Ceòl Mòr Series

“Duncan MacRae of Kintail’s Lament” is the third of five tunes in Echoes of Ceòl Mòr – Volume 4, a curated series of full-length piobaireachd recordings by Gold Medallist and Clasp-winning piper Jim McGillivray. “Duncan MacRae of Kintail’s Lament” is a deeply expressive piobaireachd rooted in the Highlands’ clan tradition, believed to honour a member of the MacRae family of Kintail. Thought to date from the late 18th or early 19th century, the tune is notable for its stately ground and lyrical variations, which evoke dignity and mourning rather than technical display. Some scholars suggest its melodic roots may trace to older Celtic harp airs, reflecting the shared musical heritage of Scotland and Ireland. Revered for its emotional depth and flowing structure, Duncan MacRae of Kintail’s Lament remains a timeless example of the artistry and restraint at the heart of ceòl mòr. Performed on the Blair Digital Chanter, this recording highlights the depth, phrasing, and flow of Ceòl Mòr. With decades of performance and adjudication experience, Jim McGillivray brings authority and subtlety to this complete piobaireachd performance.
