DESCRIPTION:
"IMT Finale" performed by The Tannahill Weavers (www.tannahillweavers.com) in concert at the Institute of Musical Traditions (www.imtfolk.org), Rockville, Maryland, USA on April 30, 2012.

The Tannahill Weavers' diverse repertoire reflects the duality of Scotland's musical heritage. It embraces both the mystical quality of the Highlander's Celtic music, and the rollicking, sometimes even brawling qualities of the Lowlander's Anglo-Scots tunes. The Tannahill Weavers' arrangements blend the beauty of the traditional melodies with the power of modern rhythms. The penetrating sound of the Highland bagpipes is a thread of ancient memory running through it all.
