The Skye Boat Song (instrumental)

An arrangement for guitars of the beautiful Scottish melody "The Skye Boat Song." This is a new re-mix of an earlier version on this channel, which it now replaces.

The accompanying images are (unsurprisingly) of locations on the Isle of Skye. They have been drawn from various sources, with grateful thanks to their originators and apologies for any unintended infringement of copyright.

"Down to the Roots" is a collection of new instrumental arrangements of traditional folk songs from the British Isles and (occasionally) the United States, performed on a range of acoustic instruments and multi-tracked in a small home studio. Various selections can be found on this channel, all accompanied by sequences of appropriate images.
