Sgoil Roc Project
‘”Sgoil Roc” teamed the teenage Gaelic vocal harmony group “Fionnar” with professional Gaelic writers and musicians who guided them through the creative process as they wrote their own contemporary Gaelic songs. The group were then taken through the entire professional recording process; learning studio techniques, graphics, working with backing tracks, distribution & marketing. The resulting CD of 3 new songs was launched with a live performance at the Nòs Òg concert at Eden Court in June 2009 and it will be used as a promotional tool by the Gaelic agencies in the Highlands.
The project aims to boost confidence amongst Gaelic speaking teenagers and to demonstrate to them that they can produce a quality product in Gaelic which has a wide appeal amongst their peer group. It is hoped that their example will inspire other like minded teenagers to do the same and help in showing that Gaelic as a language and culture is relevant in the 21st Century to teenagers as well as the older generations.
