Tour Scotland Video Gaelic Song 2016 Community Christmas Day Perth Perthshire

Tour Scotland video of a Gaelic song on Horsecross Plaza Stage on Community Christmas Day on visit to Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. Dating back centuries, Gaelic is the founding language of Scotland that is thought to originate from Ireland. It spread its way across the country as the principle language of the medieval Kingdom of Alba, extending from the Borders to Aberdeenshire, the Highlands and Islands. Perth is bidding to be UK City of Culture 2021. The bid by Perth is based on three key themes: A great, green city, celebrating Perth's place at the heart of a rural community. Connections, emphasising the city's role as a meeting place and melting pot, as well as the rivers that link the area together. A city of light, drawing on the city's heritage as a catalyst for creativity and ideas.
