NEW CD BY MAGGIE released on 18th December, 2006 called ORAN NA MNA (A Woman's Song)
In 2004 the prestigious Celtic Connections Festival of Glasgow commissioned Maggie to write a 45 minute piece of music which was performed to great acclaim at the festival in 2004 and 2005. Now Maggie has, with some assistance from the Scottish Arts Council, further developed the piece which combines music and song in Gaelic and English and has recorded it using some of Scotland’s finest musicians and singers.

INTRODUCTION TO ORAN NA MNA (A WOMAN'S SONG);- As a singer and
clarsach player deeply rooted in the Gaelic musical tradition Maggie MacInnes hopes through this new music to pay tribute to her forebears. In recent times female Gaelic poets have been starting to find their voices and be heard once again. Their words and the words and melodies of the female bards and tradition bearers of the last few centuries are the main inspiration for Oran na Mna (A Woman’s Song) which links the voices and feelings of woman from centuries past to the present day.
