Summary

This is the ground and parts of the variations of the ceòl mòr 'Cruinneachadh Chloinn Chatain' [Clan Chattan's Gathering] played on the practice chanter.

A discussion of the structure of the tune follows with a few sung examples. The contributor learned this tune from a book. He does this sometimes, but uses his own timing, as did others, such as John MacColl.

Item Notes

The complete ground is played and the first line only of each subsequent variation.
