Iona Fyfe Meets Anne McMaster and The All Ireland Pipe Band Championships

Iona Fyfe Meets Anne McMaster and The All Ireland Pipe Band Championships.

Helen Mark presents ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Ulster’s weekly Ulster-Scots magazine show alongside Rab Lennox and Willie Hill. This week, Helen enjoys an eye-opening chat with Ulster Scots poet and writer Anne Mc Master and multi award-winning Scottish Folk singer Iona Fyfe. Both shared an infectious enthusiasm for the language they weave through their chosen art form.
Meanwhile, Rab catches up with folk - both local and international - at The All Ireland Pipe Band Championships up in Londonderry. There’s also a look ahead to the Co Antrim based first edition of series two of Aul Treasures – a TV show in which found items are restored to their former glory by local experts.
As always, listeners are invited to contact the programme with a good Ulster-Scots yarn or event to talk about. The easiest way to do that is by email - kintra@bbc.co.uk.
