MacDara Ó Conaola of An Clár as Gaeilge brings you this week’s Macalla an Chláir column

Is í Sarah Ghriallais as Muiceanach idir Dhá Sháile i gConamara ábhar an chláir seo.

Tá cáil uirthi as a cuid amhránaíochta ar an sean-nós. Tá Corn Uí Riada, ag Oireachtas na Samhna agus an gradam is airde gur féidir le hamhránaí ar an sean-nós a bhuachtáil, buaite aici fhéin agus ag a muintir hocht n-uaire.

Tabharfar léargas sa gclár seo ar bhean a bhfuil máistreacht aici ar a ceird agus a bhfuil soiléireacht cantaireachta aici freisin / The Griallais family from Muiceanach idir Dhá Sháile in Conamara have, won Corn Uí Riada, the pinnacle of sean-nós singing, no less than eight times between them. Sarah Ghriallais, the subject of this documentary, is one of them, a master of the tradition widely known for her respect for the tradition and her generosity in passing it on, for the musicality of her voice and clarity of her style.
