Seinn Spioradail

Description

Seinn Spioradail is an exploration of the incredible wealth of sights, sounds and memories of spiritual singing and song writing in everyday life in Highland and Island communities, something which has been part of Highland culture for millenia. The material on the website includes a digital sound archive, virtual tour and soundmap exploring songs recorded during 5 years’ research by Dr Frances Wilkins into the sacred songs of the North-West Highlands and the Outer Hebrides. You will also find information about the Seinn Spioradial exhibition, curated by Dr Frances Wilkins and Ronan Martin, which tours around Hebridean communities from January 2024.

This resource would not have been possible without the help and expertise of many people. Thank you especially to the Open Virtual Worlds team at the University of St Andrews for creating this website, virtual tour and sound archive.
