For the very best in traditional music and song, join Gary Innes for Take the Floor. This week our session comes from earlier this year and is from Craig McFadyen and his Scottish Dance Band.
Plus Gary is joined by Fiona Dalgetty, chief executive of Feis Rois, the organisation that promotes the traditional arts and Gaelic language through a diverse programme of activities across Scotland and beyond. She tells Gary about their In Tune With Nature collaboration with Nature Scot plus what else they have been up to over this past year. And as always we have some old favourites from CD and LP and some new tracks too
