Ón imeall go croí-lár an phobail - Pádraigín Ní Uallacháin.
Thaistil muid go hArd Mhacha Theas do phodchraoladh na seachtaine, a taifeadadh sa Pig Gig i Siatrom.
Caitheann an t-amhránaí Pádraigín Ní Uallacháin seal comhrá le Lynette Fay sa Pig. Pléann sí an tógáil a fuair sí agus an Ghaeilge mar theanga an tí, an tuiscint a bhí aici riamh go raibh obair tábhachtach sa chinniúint aici, agus mar a thosaigh sí an obair ar a leabhar sainiúil Hidden Ulster atá i ndiaidh bórramh a chur faoin Ghaeilge i measc an phobail sa cheantar inár tógadh í.
A special podcast this week, for Culture Night. We took Music at Madden’s on the road to the Pig Gig in South Armagh.
From the periphery to the heart of the community - Pádraigín Ní Uallacháin
A rare chance to hear celebrated singer Pádraigín Ní Uallacháin in conversation. In a wide ranging chat, she sits down by the fire and talks to Lynette about being raised with Irish when it was far from trendy, about having a deep felt understanding that she had a specific purpose in life, and she talks at length about her seminal work A Hidden Ulster which has breathed new life into and a created a sense of deep connection with the language in the very community where she was raised.
